Just as #privacy became a selling point in platform advertising, #TikTok is now turning online safety legislation into a PR tool in a new London Underground campaign. #OnlineSafetyBill #AgeAppropriateDesignCode #platgov

Twitter seems as worried about people stealing their social graph as Facebook was a decade ago, when it sunk third-party apps it thought were duplicating it (remember Circle? No? https://venturebeat.com/social/facebooks-alleged-use-of-apis-to-crush-competition-is-a-warning-to-other-data-companies/). Yet Twitter's case seems more doomed... it's not some company pulling a fast one... it's the users who are trying to leave. #platgov
Facebook’s alleged use of APIs to crush competition is a warning to other data companies

Forget Instagram and WhatsApp. The real villains in the FTC lawsuit are Facebook's abuse of data and APIs.
