It's a bit annoying when half the questions are basically 'how does Facebook work?'. Tech is still magic to most of the people asking the questions.
This actually points to a real failure of lobbying by the tech industry. Part of lobbying is to inform the lobbying target and make them look reasonable knowledgeable on camera. Ignorance is your problem, stupidity can be masked a bit.
It’s a public exposition; getting and decomposing/de-spinning fundamental answers is kind of the whole point.
Most Americans do not even think about thinking about how Facebook makes money, but use it every single day.
zucc’s shit-eating smile was my favorite part of the whole thing.
