If one report is accurate, Fox will be replacing…

Tensions flare between Google, publishers as GDPR deadline looms


Four major trade bodies that represent some 4,000 publishers from around the globe have found themselves in a standoff with Google and its CEO Sundar Pichai.

The heart of the issue rests with how the tech company is approaching the European Union’s Global Data Protection Regulation, which takes effect on Thursday. Google says it’s committed to complying with GDPR and that it’s working with publishers to prepare for the new regime, which was designed to give people more control over how their data is used for targeted advertising.

But some publishing executives say Google’s public statements don’t match its actions, arguing that the company is really using its dominance in the digital ad ecosystem to improve its advantage while giving publishers the short end of the stick.

Fox finds 'Phone Swap' a date as it takes over Snapchat ad sales


Fox is preparing to wade deeper into Snapchat by handling all the ad sales for Vertical Networks, the digital media startup that was specially designed for the messaging app.

Fox’s first deal is with Boost Mobile, which will sponsor Vertical Networks’ dating show “Phone Swap,” about people on blind dates trading phones to learn about each other. Boost’s ad campaign is about getting consumers to switch phone carriers. The brand will be mentioned during the show, which premieres for its third season on Tuesday, and will run six-second commercial breaks. (Snapchat just began running six-second ads that don’t allow skipping last week.)

It’s the kind of brand integration that’s common on television, especially on reality shows, but Snapchat has avoided them for years as it tried to maintain barriers between content and commercials. However, that’s not the best way to appeal to the networks and studios Snapchat needs to develop programming.

What is a smart contract?


A smart contract is just like an old-fashioned verbal or paper contract except that its conditions can be met digitally. Smart contracts are not new, but they are newly relevant (and a bit overhyped) because they are an awesome, non-cryptocurrency use of blockchain technology.

You’ve likely heard of blockchain. It’s the underlying technology that powers bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Everyone is talking about blockchain because distributed ledgers (the term of art for blockchain’s tech) offer an exciting new way to transact business without a central authority.

Blockchain is information written in stone
