The STATE OF CORRUPTION IN CALIFORNIA TELLS US HOW CORRUPT SHE IS OR HAS TIES TO.  ■  California Work Comp:  high death rate, with Black & Brown people accounting for 73% of the deaths in Work Comp without investigation.  ■  Fraudulent State Tax Bureau that operates as if it were the real one.  -- allowed ■  Insurance Bad Faith not investigated by the insurance commission -- allowed ■  Prison system keeping prisoners longer than their sentences for cheap labor. ■  Legal system full of under the table dealings, not even hidden ■  Real Estate industry tied to use of foreign countries to bypass USA laws on building codes and rent control.  Bought to break laws & then sold back to investment groups.  ■  Medical System bankruptcy rates sold similar to the real estate fraud of 2008. It was a cycle of buy for debt owed, restore, bankrupt intentional, selling purchases out the back door.... high mortality rates... buy for debt... the same admins set up the scam ■  High rates of black & brown person incarceration beyond percent expected, but low incarceration of syndicate crime Kamala Harris of the "Who me?" type.  Cardboard cutout for the Cartel front?  

Jack Conte, CEO of Patreon (and the genius musician behind Pomplamoose/Magaziine), recently took to the stage at SXSW. He criticises current internet algorithms for stifling creators' creative freedom and livelihoods. While the internet initially democratised creative distribution, algorithm-driven platforms like YouTube, Facebook and TikTok hinder creators' ability to reach and monetise their true fans. Conte advocates for spaces like Patreon to empower creators and regain control over their destinies. If you have 90 seconds listen to a section of his speech (25:40) and let it sink in. In a recent discussion I highlighted this very issue, the tension between the synthetic and the authentic. What does it mean for brands and their connection to their communities in a highly controlled media environment? #CreativeFreedom #DigitalMarketing #CommunityDevelopment #BrandConnection #BoldResponse

Has your company’s social media presence pivoted to follow consumers in video and audio formats? Interesting read on a writer’s point of view for the digital age. “What is also true is how new technologies jockey to replace old ones. It’s how the game works. Radio killed newspapers. TV killed radio. The internet killed them all. That’s how the narrative goes, anyway. Today, as text-based tech fades into the hipster denim of the 2010s, video and audio reign dominant.” #media #video

Hot off the press - my latest collaboration with the fabulous Jessica Maddox: "Us, Them, Right, Wrong: How TikTok's Green Screen, Duet, and Stitch Shape Political Discourse." 🌐 Read Here: https://lnkd.in/e4gkYwPj 🔍 During the COVID-19 lockdowns, TikTok exploded, becoming a hub for political expression. Our study explores how the Green Screen, Stitch, and Duet affordances shape this discourse and how they function as tools for political commentary rather than conversation, creating a volatile environment on the political side of TikTok.

Check out this very interesting study on what the term "News" means to GenZ. It's not just "New Brands" (e.g., ABC, BBC, CBC, Economist, Fox) but "anything that is new to me". Moreover GenZ and young Millennials don't trust news, don't want to pay for subscriptions, and want more relevant news, which is often softer news related to sports, personalities, music, and celebrities. This is how we have built Snibble - with curated, personalised feeds of the world's latest and greatest short form videos. And with the ability to discover and share videos with close friends with one tap. (After all Content is no longer king, it's Content plus the Conversation around it that matter. Snibble, where you find all the news - Traditional or Modern - that's fit to share. #snibble #genz #socialvideo #nofakenews #digitalcanbebetter

True true and true. Well done on the post Carolina Domínguez & Circul8 ! 5’ to spare, read the blog below.

Snap Inc. is taking a proactive approach to protect its teen users, aged 13 to 17, by introducing a suite of new features and policies. These measures aim to create a safer online environment for young individuals and address concerns related to inappropriate content, unwanted attention, and illicit activities. 🔒 To ensure the safety of its teen users, Snapchat has implemented restrictions on friend suggestions. Now, teen users will need to have a greater number of mutual friends in common before an account shows up in search results or as a friend suggestion. This helps prevent teens from adding unknown users to the app. ⚠️ Additionally, Snapchat has introduced a new strike system for accounts promoting inappropriate content in its Stories and Spotlight sections. If such content is reported or detected, it will be immediately removed, and a strike will be issued against the account. Accumulating too many strikes within a defined period will result in account disablement. 📚 To educate teen users about online risks, Snapchat will feature in-app content aimed at raising awareness about catfishing and financial sextortion. These informative and engaging PSA-style messages will be showcased on Snapchat's Stories platform and in response to relevant search terms or keywords. 🌟 At TESI ITO, we are thrilled to see social media platforms taking steps to protect young users.
