@RMac18 right now somewhere in facebook’s slack someone has typed “if even ryan mac is saying this…” — PolitiTweet.org

Casey Newton @CaseyNewton

@RMac18 this is not a terrible argument! — PolitiTweet.org

Casey Newton @CaseyNewton

@Tambulla only that i don’t have enough time to play Deathloop — PolitiTweet.org

Casey Newton @CaseyNewton

@StevenLevy how are you spending your time since the Consortium Slack was cruelly disbanded — PolitiTweet.org

Casey Newton @CaseyNewton

@fredd when i launch the @platformer DAO this will become a reality — PolitiTweet.org

Casey Newton @CaseyNewton

A huge part of this is that I used eBay this quarter to buy a PlayStation 5 for eight hundred dollars — PolitiTweet.org

Casey Newton @CaseyNewton

@IfeomaOzoma great points. though I’d be curious how transparent Netflix is with producers — they famously don’t share viewership metrics, for example. would be odd if they shared stuff around search rankings. but maybe! — PolitiTweet.org

Casey Newton @CaseyNewton

We got a lot of requests for a replay on this one, so here’s a rare case where I was excited to be recorded without permission! Also Kara the heat is still out in the cottage — PolitiTweet.org

@Max_Fisher @EricNewcomer i mean, that would just further the conspiratorial Algorithm Discourse I’m tweeting about here. the whole point is that you don’t know why you’re seeing what you’re seeing — PolitiTweet.org

@fmanjoo @mhbergen @cityofthetown @EricNewcomer i feel like Hollywood was famously a (toxic!) relationships-based business. and then silicon valley showed up with its spreadsheets and models — PolitiTweet.org

Casey Newton @CaseyNewton

@kevinroose @mhbergen @cityofthetown @EricNewcomer 💯 — PolitiTweet.org

Casey Newton @CaseyNewton

@bertil_hatt @EricNewcomer for now! — PolitiTweet.org

Casey Newton @CaseyNewton

@mhbergen @cityofthetown @EricNewcomer right. at the end of the day it’s people’s livelihoods, and their exposure is managed by opaque systems, and that will create unresolvable conflicts until the heat death of the universe — PolitiTweet.org

Casey Newton @CaseyNewton

@EricNewcomer you’d think, and yet look at every video every YouTuber had made about YouTube in a fit of pique over the past decade — PolitiTweet.org

Casey Newton @CaseyNewton

@EricNewcomer i’m just thinking of how stories like this will empower creators to say ‘my movie flopped on netflix because of The Algorithm’ and the various gripes we will now be hearing forever. not arguing the choices here were unwarranted — PolitiTweet.org

Casey Newton @CaseyNewton

This feels like important news, and the moment that conspiratorial platform Algorithm Discourse comes to Netflix to stay — PolitiTweet.org

@USLaw_com @WillOremus @terronk thank you https://t.co/IRp7QPcWuU — PolitiTweet.org

Casey Newton @CaseyNewton

@blakereid thanks! — PolitiTweet.org

Casey Newton @CaseyNewton

@blakereid Who said anything about definitive? The market for “Facebook sucks” coverage is well saturated. You accused me of being captured by my sources when I was seeking to understand the culture in which some of these problems arise. It’s a dick move! — PolitiTweet.org

Casey Newton @CaseyNewton

@yassmin_a I haven’t really written much about it since it happened. Would be curious to know what effects it has had! — PolitiTweet.org

Casey Newton @CaseyNewton

@russellbrandom @thedextriarchy i would also like to hear more about this Adi — PolitiTweet.org

Casey Newton @CaseyNewton

@russellbrandom @thedextriarchy this is me. if people want to misbehave in their video game endings, well, i’ll just watch them do it on YouTube. and judge them for their choices — PolitiTweet.org

Casey Newton @CaseyNewton

Well I just inhaled the @longformpodcast with @benyt. Two things I love: his focus on getting scoops (not always the norm in some newsrooms!) and the empathy for the people he’s writing about https://t.co/Rbc96UUoLt — PolitiTweet.org

Casey Newton @CaseyNewton

@blakereid I would expect more intellectual curiosity from a law professor! — PolitiTweet.org

Casey Newton @CaseyNewton

@WillOremus For sure, and I do note that in my conclusion. I wanted to focus on the narrow question of ‘how do we read these individual documents’ and what conclusions we draw from them — PolitiTweet.org

Casey Newton @CaseyNewton

RT @robyncaplan: I feel like @CaseyNewton’s interview with a Facebook employee and this interview with @karaswisher about Zuckerberg offer… — PolitiTweet.org

@JohnGPettus FINALLY — PolitiTweet.org

Casey Newton @CaseyNewton

@malekkarim2 @mcwm i DO and i just beat Rachet and Clank. Moving on to Deathloop — PolitiTweet.org

Eidos Montreal WILL be hearing from my lawyers. About how I want a free copy of Guardians of the Galaxy for PS5 — PolitiTweet.org

@levie documents …. is there anything they CAN’T do — PolitiTweet.org
