Apple says it’s slashing app store fees for small developers who make less than $1 million a year. The new cut will be 15%, down from 30%. Apple's fees have been a source of tension with devs — and a target for antitrust critics. https://t.co/2JgBed9F8p — PolitiTweet.org

Facebook and Twitter got their fair share of congressional criticism yesterday. But the bigger picture? Tech companies and Congress are slowly laying the groundwork for legislative action in the new year. https://t.co/DJynlVDab4 — PolitiTweet.org

Twitter seems to want more competition in algorithms, including the ability for users to opt-out of algorithmic content ranking altogether. Whatever is put in place shouldn’t entrench the power of incumbent platforms, in Jack’s view. — PolitiTweet.org

The companies articulated their respective visions for the future. Facebook seems to want (or at least not oppose) clear categories of unacceptable content that algorithms can be told to seek out and enforce against — importing the terrorism/exploitation regulatory regime. — PolitiTweet.org

Reflecting on today’s hearing, some early first impressions. Today’s hearing seemed more substantive and/or illluminating compared to the last, and we now have a clearer idea where some lawmakers and the companies stand on certain questions. — PolitiTweet.org

Facebook’s @andymstone points me to this policy page, which says that while sitting politicians aren't eligible for fact-checking by partners, content by *former* politicians is. When a fact-checker throws a red flag, the content is restricted on FB. https://t.co/qIAYcZwMYB — PolitiTweet.org

Trump currently benefits from this. He may soon no longer. But that, of course, raises the question of whether Facebook will continue to view Trump as a newsworthy individual eligible for protection under this exemption even after he departs the White House. — PolitiTweet.org

Zuckerberg was saying that for any category of violation that does not have a newsworthiness exception, Trump will continue to be treated the same as he is now, and the same as anyone else. But there are other policies where Facebook *does* have a newsworthiness exemption. — PolitiTweet.org

Of course, this raises the same question for Trump that applies to Bannon: How many times can a normal user violate Facebook’s policies before being banned? Zuckerberg has been rather evasive about this. — PolitiTweet.org

One is a centralized approach, the other is decentralized. One favors a company with a vested interest in building proprietary algorithms and making users dependent on them; the other gives platforms a plausible excuse for offloading responsibility onto third parties. — PolitiTweet.org
