Snapchat Business Model

snapchat-business-model
unfortunately in the last decade we saw the emergence of the โ€œanything goesโ€ intellectual movement, where pretty much anything could be claimed as long as wrapped around a credible story. That generated intellectuals like Harari, which fake their understanding of domains they donโ€™t have any clue about. Just because anything goesโ€ฆ

Facebook Business Model

facebook-business-model
Facebook, the main product of Meta, is an attention merchant. As such, its algorithms condense the attention of over three billion monthly active users as of 2023.
