Facebook Now the Number One Source for Political News - Study. A new study by Pew Research has found that Facebook is ‘far and away the most common source for news about government and politics’ among Millennials in the U.S. The study compared the top media news sources for Millenials (aged 18-33), Generation X’ers (34-49) and Baby Boomers (50-68), finding that Facebook leads among both Millennials and Gen X, in terms of being a political and government news source.

Boomers, meanwhile, are still most reliant on TV news. While the data itself is not overly surprising, the significance of the gap between Facebook (61%) and the next closest source (CNN at 44%) is something that can’t be ignored, particularly when considering the breadth of that age bracket. People aged 18 to 34 make up around 20.7% of the American population, according to U.S. Census figures from 2013. Generation X’ers make up 19.5% - in combination, based on this research, Facebook is the leading source of government and political news for more than 40% of the U.S. In an Instant. InaGlobal sur Twitter : "[VEILLE] #Facebook lance « Instant Articles » >> par @TechCrunch...

Facebook Starts Hosting Publishers’ “Instant Articles” After months of rumors, Facebook today unveiled “Instant Articles”, a program that natively hosts publishers’ content in its app’s News Feed so users don’t have to click out and wait for websites to load. Instant Articles debuts today with rich-media stories from The New York Times, BuzzFeed, National Geographic, and six other outlets that will be globally visible from Facebook’s iPhone app. You can check out Instant Articles for yourself by visiting the feature’s Facebook Page on an iPhone. Assuaging publishers’ fears that Facebook would keep all the data, the social network will share analytics, and Instant Articles is compatible with audience measurement and attribution tools like comScore, Omniture, and Google Analytics.

Ads can appear inside Instant Articles, with publishers keeping 100% of revenue if they sell them, and Facebook keeps its standard 30% if it sells the ads, as the Wall Street Journal previously reported. Designed On Paper Built To Appease Publishers — BuzzFeed. Facebook permet aux utilisateurs de personnaliser leur Newsfeed - Blog du Modérateur. Le newsfeed est un des grands mystères de Facebook. Il se rapproche de plus en plus d’un assistant curateur basé sur de multiples critères réunis dans un Nwsfeed ranking algorithm. Le but de cet algorithme est selon Facebook, se poposer du contenu pertinent à l’utilisateur.

Et c’est aussi, évidemment, un excellent moyen de faire payer les annonceurs pour que leurs posts soient visibles. Jusqu’à présent, le newsfeed était assez figé et n’offrait aucun choix de personnalisation si ce n’est l’affichage « Top stories » ou « Most recent ». Mais dans un son dernier Q&A, Mark Zuckerberg avait abordé le fait que l’utilisateur pourrait avoir de plus en plus de possibilité de personnalisation de son newsfeed. Il est désormais possible de voir quelles pages, et quels amis nous ont montré le plus d’informations via le newsfeed. Facebook contre Google: le mobile relance la guerre de la publicité en ligne. Facebook semble parti à l’assaut du roi Google dans la publicité en ligne, profitant de l’essor des connexions mobiles à internet qui change les règles du jeu dans le secteur. Google reste dominant sur ce marché dont il s’octroie environ un tiers des recettes mondiales, mais Facebook a vu sa part doubler en deux ans, pour atteindre 8% cette année, selon la société de recherche eMarketer.

Le réseau aux 1,3 milliard de membres progresse surtout dans les annonces mobiles: sa part y est passée de 0 à 20% entre 2011 et 2014. Or c’est ce créneau du marché qui croit le plus vite, avec des recettes parties pour doubler cette année à 36,5 milliards de dollars, un quart des revenus totaux de la publicité en ligne. Continuant sur sa lancée, Facebook vient de lancer une nouvelle plateforme, Audience Network, qui permet d’exploiter les données recueillies sur ses utilisateurs pour cibler des publicités diffusées dans des applications mobiles tierces.

. - Suivre sur plusieurs appareils - European court to rule on allegations Facebook passes personal data to NSA. A European court has been asked to rule on a landmark case which seeks to force watchdogs to audit the personal data Facebook allegedly releases to US spy chiefs. The high court in Dublin has referred to Strasbourg a challenge by an Austrian privacy campaigner on the back of the Prism surveillance operation exposed by whistleblower Edward Snowden. Max Schrems's initial attempt to have the social media giant audited over data that its Irish arm allegedly passes on to the US National Security Agency (NSA) was dismissed last year by Ireland's Data Protection Commission. On Wednesday, Judge Desmond Hogan ordered the privacy challenge – taken in the Irish courts by Schrems's EuropeVFacebook campaign – be referred to the European court of justice.

The judge said evidence suggests that personal data is routinely accessed on a "mass and undifferentiated basis" by the US security authorities. He said Facebook users should have their privacy respected under the Irish constitution. Facebook, les raisons du succès. Nikos Smyrnaios est maître de conférences en Information et Communication à l’université de Toulouse-III. Ses travaux et publications portent essentiellement sur les enjeux socioéconomiques et techniques de l'internet. Quelles sont selon vous les évolutions majeures de ce réseau depuis 10 ans ? Comment expliquer le succès de Facebook ? Pourriez-vous nous expliquer ce qui en fait en réseau « à part » ? Nikos Smyrnaios : Avec le recul on peut penser qu’il y a un faisceau de facteurs qui expliquent le succès de Facebook.

Le premier est la conjoncture liée à la maturation des usages et des technologies de l’internet. D’autres réseaux socionumériques très proches ont existé avant lui, comme Sixdegrees, sans rencontrer un engouement populaire comparable parce qu’ils étaient précoces. Le deuxième facteur est la stratégie de diffusion choisie par Marc Zuckerberg. News Feed : comment Facebook sélectionne les contenus ? : Les trois piliers de l'EdgeRank. L'EdgeRank est mort, vive l'EdgeRank ! Pour rappel, ce terme est le nom donné à la méthode définie par Facebook pour sélectionner les contenus mis en avant dans les flux d'actualité de chaque profil Facebook. Or cet été, les ingénieurs responsables de ce système ont expliqué que ce terme n'était plus employé en interne depuis 2 ans et demi. Désormais, ont-ils fait comprendre, Facebook, utilise un algorithme de classement bien plus complexe, même si le terme EdgeRank continue d'être utilisé en dehors de Facebook.

Et d'ailleurs, les piliers de cet EdgeRank donne des bases encore très utiles pour comprendre le fonctionnement de l'algorithme utilisé aujourd'hui. Pour rappel, Facebook avait expliqué le fonctionnement de l'EdgeRank, et en avait même livré la formule mathématique. Elle reposait sur trois piliers, trois critères majeurs conditionnant l'apparition des contenus dans les flux d'actualité. The Disconcerting Details: How Facebook Teams Up With Data Brokers to Show You Targeted Ads. Recently, we published a blog post that described how to opt out of seeing ads on Facebook targeted to you based on your offline activities. This post explained where these companies get their data, what information they share with Facebook, or what this means for your privacy.

So get ready for the nitty-gritty details: who has your information, how they get it, and what they do with it. It’s a lot of information, so we’ve organized it into an FAQ for convenience. What are data brokers and how did they get my information? Is there a government surveillance aspect to this? What information is flowing between data brokers and Facebook? What does opting out mean? Does Facebook have standards for companies that want to work with them? Will Facebook show me targeted ads off of Facebook? What should Facebook be doing differently? What are data brokers and how did they get my information? Data brokers make money by selling access to this information. The companies gave vague responses.

This article explores the new modalities of visibility engendered by new media, with a focus on the social networking site Facebook. Influenced by Foucault’s writings on Panopticism – that is, the architectural structuring of visibility – this article argues for understanding the construction of visibility on Facebook through an architectural framework that pays particular attention to underlying software processes and algorithmic power. Through an analysis of EdgeRank, the algorithm structuring the flow of information and communication on Facebook’s ‘News Feed’, I argue that the regime of visibility constructed imposes a perceived ‘threat of invisibility’ on the part of the participatory subject. As a result, I reverse Foucault’s notion of surveillance as a form of permanent visibility, arguing that participatory subjectivity is not constituted through the imposed threat of an all-seeing vision machine, but by the constant possibility of disappearing and becoming obsolete.

Why Are Taxpayers Subsidizing Facebook, and the Next Bubble? Simon Johnson, the former chief economist at the International Monetary Fund, is the co-author of “13 Bankers.” Goldman Sachs is investing $450 million of its own money in Facebook, at a valuation that implies the social-networking company is now worth $50 billion. Goldman is also creating a fund that will offer its high-net-worth clients an opportunity to invest in Facebook.

On the face of it, this might seem just like what the financial sector is supposed to be doing – channeling money into productive enterprise. The Securities and Exchange Commission is reportedly looking at the way private investors will be involved, but there are more deeply unsettling factors at work here. Remember that Goldman Sachs is now a bank-holding company – a status it received in September 2008, at the height of the financial crisis, in order to avoid collapse (see Andrew Ross Sorkin’s blow-by-blow account in “Too Big to Fail” for the details.)

Unfortunately, so far no one has taken up this approach. Facebook in Online Privacy Breach; Applications Transmitting Identifying Information. Is your private phone number on Facebook? Probably. And so are your friends' | Technology. If you have a friend on Facebook who has used the iPhone app version to access the site, then it's very possible that your private phone numbers - and those of lots of your and their friends - are on the site. The reason: Facebook's "Contact Sync" feature, which synchronises your friends' Facebook profile pictures with the contacts in your phone. Except that it doesn't do that on your phone. Oh no. Because that would be wrong, to pull the photos down from Facebook and put them on your phone. Instead, what What Facebook's app does it that it imports all the names and phone numbers you have on your (smart)phone, uploads them to Facebook's Phonebook app (got a Facebook account?

Pause for a moment and go and look at it. Update: that's the implication of "all contacts from your device... will be sent to Facebook and be subject to Facebook's Privacy Policy". The implications are huge, and extremely worrying. Von Moos continues: "2) Phone numbers are private and valuable.
