FTC: A Look Behind the Screens Examining the Data Practices of Social Media and Video Streaming Services

The US Federal Trade Commission has published a free report. “A Look Behind the Screens Examining the Data Practices of Social Media and Video Streaming Services” is about 80 pages comprising the actual report. The document covers:

  • A legal framework for social media and streaming services
  • Some basic information about the companies mentioned in the report
  • The data “practices” of the companies (I would  have preferred the phrase “procedures and exploitation”)
  • Advertising practices (my suggestion is to name the section “revenue generation and maximization”)
  • Algorithms, Data Analytics, or AI
  • Children and teens
