@MrTinDC I do love the Doctor, he’s one of my favorites. The Chakotay episodes didn’t really age well, though. Today they feel kind of Orientalist rather than as a celebration of diversity. — PolitiTweet.org

As eight states & DC kick off an antitrust investigation of Facebook, New York’s AG is vowing to use “every investigative tool at our disposal” — and comes as Texas and dozens of other states are expected to launch a probe of Google on Monday: https://t.co/xZ0CXI4ST5 — PolitiTweet.org

The FTC’s Andrew Smith says regulators considered forcing a technological remedy like proactive machine learning identification of children’s content, but ultimately worried that it could lead to an unwinnable legal back-and-forth when it came time to enforce. — PolitiTweet.org

Slaughter adds there's nothing in the deal to prevent people from lying about whether their videos are for kids; it's just a voluntary self-certification program. Chopra says this settlement repeats the mistakes of the Facebook deal — doesn't hold execs personally liable, etc. — PolitiTweet.org

In addition to the fine, Google will also have to make creators of children's content say whether their videos are for kids, a signal Google will use to shape its advertising practices. Google separately says it'll soon treat all data from kid videos as if the viewer is a kid. — PolitiTweet.org
