    Been coming to London for 25 years and this time almost everyone I’ve interacted with has been an EU immigrant. I know it’s not a new take, but seeing it first hand — London will be so screwed by (separately, all the brown people I’ve talked to were native born Brits) – at Tate Britain

    My very last episode of is up, and we go through some of the best moments from the past two years of shows. Also, it's fitting that I'm trying to emulate in this photo, even though she insists she likes her phone more than me.

    the full thread around 's internal post would definitely help. I wonder why FB, or Boz, doesn't just make that available?

    Since my last Tweetstorm about your FB data was so popular, I'm going to follow up with another on the Boz 'memo' leak, trying to put that in context (and this is mostly directed at the journalists covering it). (I'm dispensing with numbering)

    SoftBank likely had to pass on China’s $800 billion sovereign wealth fund for political reasons. (wouldn’t have passed CFIUS review.) But there is another option: co-investing where the two funds invest in startups side by side. Don’t be surprised if you see that in future deals

    FB exec says the memo doesn’t reflect his actual views. He’s wargaming. Playing out the hypotheticals as any good exec/leader does. Problem: The memo articulates exactly what everyone outside of Silicon Valley fears is how Silicon Valley execs think.

    I have a scoop.

    1. Amazon does pay state and local taxes. 2. The USPS’s only revenue growth is coming from package deliveries, much of that thanks to Amazon.

    I have stated my concerns with Amazon long before the Election. Unlike others, they pay little or no taxes to state & local governments, use our Postal System as their Delivery Boy (causing tremendous loss to the U.S.), and are putting many thousands of retailers out of business!

    Cook says he's distributing jobs around the U.S., but not because Donald Trump made him. "I don’t feel political pressure."

    A good reminder of why Facebook collects data in the first place — it’s too valuable. And it knows everyone else will if they haven’t already.

    Snapchat is building the same kind of data-sharing API that just got Facebook into trouble
