Which brings us to, why was
@OpenRightsGroup so busy praising Facebook they forgot to mention they have a patent for the exact same thing?https://twitter.com/aral/status/793749956880429056 … -
I've added a link and altered the article to include this point. However
@aral our point was about Admiral's app and what they wish to do. -
Cool, thank you. Admiral wouldn’t have been able to do any of that if Facebook didn’t enable it.
-
Yes and no. Yes, FB collect vast amounts of data and provide an API; no, they don't permit it to be used as Admiral wish.
-
I know one company they’ll permit to do whatever they want with it though… Facebook, Inc.
