    #35 Musk & Twitter (again), Kanye to buy Parler? Blogger $300K Defamation

    Big Hits Meta’s Metaverse Struggles Continue https://www.afr.com/technology/zuckerberg-s-metaverse-looks-like-a-colossal-fail-20221017-p5bqaj https://mashable.com/article/horizon-worlds-is-underwhelming Meta wanted 500,000 monthly active users on Horizon Worlds by the end of 2022 — about a year after it was fully available to the public. But, since there are currently fewer than 200,000 users, Meta had to change its goal post to a revised 280,000. That's nearly a 50% failure on their part. Compare that to the 3.5 billion average monthly users that Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp garners. Tiktok says it’s not a social media app https://mumbrella.com.au/tiktok-pulls-away-from-acccs-social-media-definition-stressing-challenger-position-760726 Musk says he’ll buy Twitter, again, to avoid a lawsuit for trying to not buy Twitter when he said would buy Twitter https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2022/oct/06/elon-musk-twitter-litigation-takeover https://techcrunch.com/2022/10/08/elon-musk-x-everything-wechat-tesla-app/ Kanye to buy Parler https://www.cnbc.com/2022/10/17/kanye-west-is-buying-conservative-social-media-platform-parler-company-says.html Album Cuts Netflix roasts Zelda fans on Twitter Food blogger get’s $300,000 in damages from another influencer for defamation https://www.abc.net.au/news/2022-10-18/food-blogger-defamation-damages-pastry-chef-social-media/101546572#:~:text=Food Netflix Ad Supported Tier releasing in November https://www.kotaku.com.au/2022/10/netflixs-ad-supported-plan-is-coming-next-month-with-less-offerings/ Events WAMA Breaky Grill The Marketer with Brittany Garbutt Nov 3rd
