Facebook’s fatal flaw:

Zuck is trying desperately to get ahead of the crisis. Fake accounts mean fake ad metrics. He’s pushing business advertising away so he can get the situation under control.

FB is seen as invasive. People like to connect but they don’t like FB itself. Too big too fast. They’ve masked their flaws by acquiring everything that posed a threat.

MySpace is on the comeback. Other platforms will rise.

I’m not in SNAP, but I empathize with them. They stared down the bully and will maintain their independence. Zuck tried to buy them, then he tried to kill them. Not very nice.

Empires crash.
