lol in zuckerberg's new year message, where he mentions he wants FB to become an ecommerce platform to help small businesses, he reveals what he actually wants them to do: "buying ads to get their message out more broadly" ? https://t.co/bRr7oGhAVv

Mark Zuckerberg posts his challenge to himself with a new bent: Instead of an annual goal, his aims for the next decadehttps://t.co/YaRx3sTRlf

Great thread. Incremental point: anything that slows down platforms will reduce harm. Best way to create global regs = experiment with local regs in every jurisdiction. Experiment, learn, repeat. Start now. Ignore complaints from platforms. (h/t: @jason_kint) https://t.co/qWMaUAxuwI

Zuckerberg's plans to fix 2030 involve... a lot of Facebook:
— Josh Constine (@JoshConstine) January 9, 2020
-VR (Oculus) could reduce housing crises via work from anywhere
-AR (Fb Glasses) -> feeling less divided by devices
-Smaller social nets (Fb Groups / Chat) -> feeling less lost in the crowd https://t.co/dj2Vn1CKvb
Kind of strange to see the CEO of a company he completely controls preach about the value of decentralization, external governance. How Facebook is fundamentally structured seems completely at odds with those ideas. https://t.co/q38C5WbDbx

New post by Zuck. Touches on privacy, decentralization, VR, and governance.

Of particular interest to crypto:
“One of the big questions for the next decade is: how should we govern the large new digital communities that the internet has enabled?” https://t.co/IODLzbCEe2
Zuck's note, like Boz', is naive. When our primary communications medium fosters a permanent dissensus (as @noupside says), it may not be possible for democracies to reach consensus to address existential, structural issues like climate change. https://t.co/kTI887btIG pic.twitter.com/3eO95RGRdP

“While I expect phones to still be our primary devices through most of this decade, at some point in the 2020s, we will get breakthrough augmented reality glasses that will redefine our relationship with technology.” - Mark Zuckerberg https://t.co/q38C5WbDbx

Mark Zuckerberg has just published a big post on his goals for himself and Facebook in the next ten years — including some big predictions for the role AR and AR glasses will play in changing society. Read here: https://t.co/YhOEEG5trO

my dude...... millennials have been voting for 20 years https://t.co/2dLufnbyzX pic.twitter.com/bHDtf5zex2
— Will Oremus (@WillOremus) January 9, 2020
the goals, broadly, include:
— rat king (@MikeIsaac) January 9, 2020
what he calls "generational change," which appears to be representation of millennial views in government
private communications (e.g. whatsapp)
small biz growth
VR/AR
and new governance models based on how the internet works
i know it's trite to harp on this, but mark zuckerberg literally started facebook to get laid. let us not allow him to retcon facebook's deeply pathetic origin storyhttps://t.co/ZPJt7TYKRc pic.twitter.com/c34s8QM9Iz

This is a good thread. I’ll just add Facebook (and GOOG) want the issue to be about all tech and the entire internet. Mirroring germany federal cartel office decision against Facebook in US to limit its dominance and data tentacles to align with expectations would be huge step. https://t.co/JBfiigti8j

This is a really long-winded way to justify giving up yearly challenges https://t.co/tBPesy1mZn

Something about Zuck's annual resolution letter feels like a kid over-explaining an excuse for forgetting his homeworkhttps://t.co/73DZcBO6XX

My takeaway: If Zuckerberg wants to build towards a more utopic 2030, he needs to hire cynics & skeptics to preemptively steer Fb away from dystopic consequences https://t.co/dj2Vn1CKvb

This is huge!! Facebook to enter the SME business segment with e-commerce & payment tools

The SMB tech market is currently worth ~$230 billion. Given the rise in entrepreneurship, I believe it can easily grow to $1 trillion over the next decade https://t.co/VvwzXgjeJf
