Il nuovo #fairphone ha un sistema operativo proprio, staccato dalla dipendenza di #Google. Modulare, con manutenzione diretta e supporto per diversi anni. Mi chiedo quanto sia #marketing o un prodotto che guarda alla reale #privacy e distacco dalle #bigtech. @devol e @lealternative credete sia un prodotto capace di consentire un #degoogliser o è solo strategia di presentarsi leggermente più etico di altri? Davanti a queste cose mi pongo sempre il dubbio.

It takes some effort, but if you try to find Europe-based providers for tech-related products or services, most of the time not only will you find one, but you'll be surprised how good and different it is. The marketing of US and Asia-based big-tech companies is overpowering any effort by smaller operations, even really good ones. Latest for me: looking for smart watches beyond Apple/Samsung/Garmin/google? Good luck. But if you try hard enough…

Marketing departments are like neighborhood kids leaving bags of shit on your doorstep.

Marketing departments using generative AI are like neighborhood kids leaving burning bags of shit on your doorstep.

They're both shit, but one is being advertised as the new hotness while being objectively worse.

What does the Digital Services Act (DSA) mean for online advertising and adtech?

New blog post by Pieter Wolters and me.

Our most controversial claim is that ad networks and some other adtech companies must be considered ‘platforms’ in the sense of the DSA.

Hence, they must comply with the DSA’s general rules for platforms.

My daughter just asked me "Why would they call it 'sweet n low' and use a treble clef instead of bass?"

🤯

Decades. I've ignored this glaring #marketing fail for decades.
