Platforms；Biased algorithms are everywhere, and no one seems to care

Line號稱全球使用用戶達6億戶，單是台灣就超過1700萬戶，是滲透率最高的地方。我們一天生活，從起床到睡覺，沒有一個人能擺脫平台經濟。例如，Youtube全球使用用戶15億人，Wechat8.89戶，Twitter3.28億，Snapchat2.25億，WhatsApp12億，Messegers12億，Inatgram7億⋯⋯這些平台流量愈大的企業，股價市值也水漲船高。最近，臉書的馬克·佐伯格宣布FB每月流量超過20億戶，臉書市值飛越5000億大關，原來除了Fb外，whatsApp，Messegers及Instagram都是Fb的。這個平台經濟掌握世界的趨勢會愈演愈烈！
