A comment on Confidential metrics for Snapchat features. Parent comment
Facebook has started selling ads in 2011 (previous years were covered by Microsoft deal http://www.nytimes.com/2007/10/25/technology/24cnd-facebook.... ) and had to face the grip that Google/DoubleClick, AOL and Yahoo! had on online advertising.
Google AdWords started selling ads in 2000, facing the grip of AOL, Yahoo! and DoubleClick.
How did those platforms gain prominence without aggressive antitrust enforcement?
