BRIFW just launched their 13th weekly report: "Is it the end of the AR filter era?" discussing how Meta 's decision to shut down Meta Spark Studio affects creators and the tech market as a whole. I was invited to collaborate on this article, bringing my vision to the matter: "Particularly, I notice that agencies and big brands are only now beginning to understand this (AR possibilities), and the end of Spark is a cold shower on the vast possibilities the platform offers, not to mention the work of thousands of creators that will simply be erased from the platform."

Meta has decided to shut down CrowdTangle, a tool used by researchers and journalists to track misinformation, despite protests. Meta's alternative, Meta Content Library, is available to select groups but has been criticized for limited functionality. We talked more about this topic on our most recent stream and you can watch the clip here: https://lnkd.in/d6yK9jvz #Meta #CrowdTangle #Misinformation 

Today, #Journalism feels a little dimmer. #CrowdTangle is officially dead, #Meta has pulled the plug. As someone who's relied on this platform for years, CrowdTangle was a game-changer for me, It wasn't just about monitoring what was popular, it was about understanding why certain content resonated, how misinformation spread, and where conversations were headed. This tool provided a level of insight that simply isn't available through any other tool. Now, it feels like a step backwards, leaving journalists with fewer resources to navigate an increasingly complex information landscape, it raises questions about Meta's commitment to transparency, especially at a time when the need for open access to social media data is more critical than ever.   Here's to CrowdTangle, a tool that empowered many to shine a light on the truth. Its absence will be a loss for journalism and for anyone who values a well-informed public.

Meta v. Bright Data case update 📣 BIG NEWS, Meta agreed to dismiss its last claim against Bright Data for tortious interference with contract. And more significantly, Meta waived its right to appeal the court’s order on the motion for summary judgment, where the court dismissed Meta’s breach of contract claim. This means that the court's ruling that Meta's terms do not prohibit scraping of public data will stand and Meta cannot contest it. Great result, but the limitations of the ruling cited in my blog post still stand, so be sure to read up, https://lnkd.in/dhhBSMT3 #webscraping #webscrapinglaw
