Kampen mod massakrevideoen fra New Zealand
Mohan, YouTube’s chief product officer, had assembled his war room — a group of senior executives known internally as “incident commanders” who jump into crises, such as when footage of a suicide or shooting spreads online.

Men hvorfor er det så svært for tech-firmaerne at blokere en video som denne?
“They haven’t gotten to the point of having effective AI to suppress this kind of content on a proactive basis, even though it’s the most cash-rich […] industry in the world,” says Dipayan Ghosh, a fellow at Harvard’s Kennedy School and a former member of Facebook’s privacy and policy team. That’s one reason why Facebook as well as YouTube have teams of human moderators reviewing content around the world.

Facebook har da også erkendt, at kunstig intelligens ikke er nok til at standse voldelige live-streams:
“Many people have asked why artificial intelligence (AI) didn’t detect the video from last week’s attack automatically,” said Guy Rosen, Facebook VP of integrity, in a blog postpublished today. “AI has made massive progress over the years and in many areas, which has enabled us to proactively detect the vast majority of the content we remove. But it’s not perfect.”
Sidsteplads til Facebook i troværdighed

Facebook vil gøre udgivere mindre afhængige af… Facebook
After years of courting publishers to try new Facebook products and features, Facebook has begun telling publishers — with increasing directness — that they should not rely too much on its News Feed or other features for their businesses.
Facebook savner lokale nyheder
Det er lidt paradoksalt, da nogle nok vil mene, at Facebook har været med til at ødelægge mulighederne for medier…
“About one in three users in the U.S. live in places where we cannot find enough local news on Facebook to launch Today In,” Facebook wrote in a blog post Monday in which it’s promoting a new journalism initiative. Specifically, that means Facebook hasn’t been able to find “five or more recent news articles directly related to these towns” in any of the past 28 days. That qualifies those areas as a “news desert,” according to Facebook.
Fox er den store vinder efter Facebooks algoritmeændring
It’s been a little over a year since Facebook announced major algorithm changes that would decrease the amount of news in News Feed, instead prioritizing non-publisher content that spurs engagement and provokes comments. Fourteen or so months in, what does the news environment on Facebook look like? […]
FoxNews.com is far and away the top English-language publisher by engagement in 2019.

Medier måler forkert ifm. notifikationer
Without an appropriate framework to measure long-term push notification strategies, publishers walk a tightrope between engaging their audience and spamming them. Although high amounts of click-throughs or “tap-throughs” may result in short-term spikes in traffic and ad revenue, they will eventually be detrimental to the overall value of a strategy.
Læs om Wireds paywall-strategi
For Wired’s editor-in-chief, Nick Thompson, the paywall wasn’t a new concept, even though it was one of the first three set up under Condé Nast’s roof. Previously the editor of the NewYorker.com—before joining Wiredat the start of 2017—Thompson introduced its online paywall, which contributed to a 130-percent increase in annual subscriptions, and then rode that wave of success over to Wired, modeling its paywall off of TheNew Yorker’s.
