Re:Have the Tech Giants Grown Too Powerful? on Thursday July 12, 2018 @02:24PM (#17517266)

I don't know if it's necessarily a NY vs. SF thing. I see it as the NYT trying to push a conversation.

Everyone knows that the financial sector is too powerful, and attempts have been made to take action on it (i.e. regulation, albeit relatively unsuccessful). I think this is the first time we're really seeing a public conversation about the power of software fueled by advertising and its implications on privacy and speech - discussion about regulation and policies is coming around for the first time, making it pretty important news to cover.

That's a pretty gross generalisation based on one company. There are definitely a few cases but the industry as a whole isn't comparable to Wall Street by any means.

Maybe some...

I love the idea, I can't seem to be able to integrate Facebook in the 'How to redeem' section though. It shows it's possible on your landing page but it's not there when I'm making my reward.

What about being able to customize the data needed from the users before sharing? One of the key things we need from our users is their city.

It'll be interesting to see if he actually tries to take control of any of the companies, I'm not sure of the ruling in Turkey but in the US if they buy more than 5% they have disclose if they intend to acquire.
