Instagram Head Adam Mosseri Says “Threads Is Not Going To Amplify News”

New Instagram app ‘threads’ are not prepared to challenge Elon Musk’s X if statements made by Adam Mosseri recently hold. Instagram head Adam further stated that the company didn’t intend to ‘amplify’ news on this platform. Users can also delete the Instagram account if they don’t prefer the “Threads” concept.

Although his position is not that unsure, it is discourteous if someone is looking to exit X in favor of benefits.

As per Meta’s information, social media platforms, like Facebook and Instagram, have had difficult relationships with news publishers over a few years. They have even had fights regarding publishing fake news, accusations, and clickbait of multiple political biases.  

Meta-owned ‘X’ social media platform has the potential to pull X users who are unsatisfied with Musk’s changes. At an Instagram creator event held last week, Mosseri expressed his statement, “We want to empower creators in general. We try not to slant too hard into the news. We’re not anti-news.”

While it is reasonable to say that Threads might be too new to have this solid approach to handling modern news. The requirement for X alternatives has become more popular in increasing the number of misinformation. Regarding additions, Mosseri is incorrect that Threads is not getting any news. Recently, the company has deleted many news-related search terms, such as ‘covid,’’ the Washington Post,’ and so many others.

Facebook Settlement When It Will Pay Out and How to Verify It

Facebook Settlement: When It Will Pay Out and How to Verify It

Millions of users have applied for a share of the money that Facebook agreed to pay out as part of the court deal after the social media platform settled a multi-million dollar privacy lawsuit this year. More than 500,000 Americans who applied have had their settlement claims denied since the application deadline; additional rejection letters might still be arriving as claims are processed. If you applied, here is all the information you need to know, including where to check the status of your application, how to determine if it has been rejected, and why it can be difficult to predict when you will receive your payment. Tech behemoth Meta, the owner of Facebook, settled a privacy lawsuit and agreed to reimburse users of its platform who were adversely affected by its poor practices with an impressive $725 million. Facebook users received a notification in April letting them know they could apply. Users had until August 25th to submit an application after it opened over the summer. By September 7th, more than 17 million claims had been preliminary validated. The settlement was finally approved by the judge on October 11th, but only after numerous objections. We are currently in the appeals period, and two objectors have submitted appeals thus far. The Hill reports that Angeion, the company handling the case, has received applications for a settlement from 28 million Americans. As a result, it is the most claims filed in US history. Five hundred thousand of those claims have already been denied, as we have discussed. Should your claim be among the unfortunate ones to be denied, you might have received an email informing you of this already. Make sure to examine both your inbox and the spam folder of the email address you provided when submitting the claim application. You have ten days from the time of rejection to file an appeal. Having Angeion verify your claim could be worthwhile. Errors do occur when businesses are processing this volume of applications, and this is the largest single claim in American history.

Taylor Swift Sends Kelly Clarkson Flowers After Every Re-Recording

Taylor Swift Sends Flowers to Kelly Clarkson After Re-Recording

Kelly Clarkson has recently told the media about the sweet gesture Taylor Swift shows each time she re-records her albums. The host of Kelly Clarkson Show revealed to E! News, “You know what's so funny? She just sent me flowers. She's so nice. She did. She was like, 'Every time I release something'—'cause she just did 1989. I got that really cute cardigan, too." As we know, Kelly had suggested in a tweet back in 2019 that Taylor should re-record her music after Scooter Braun's company Ithaca Holdings LLC acquired her former label Big Machine Label Group, and got hold of the rights to the masters for her first six studio albums. And that's precisely what Taylor did - she re-recorded her music. The Breakaway singer insists however that Taylor would have re-recorded even if Kelly had not made the suggestion. https://twitter.com/PopCrave/status/1722801460901986399?s=20 Kelly went on, "I love how kind she is though. She's a very smart businesswoman. So, she would have thought of that. But it just sucks when you see artists that you admire and you respect really wanting something and it's special to them. You know if they're going to find a loophole, you find a loophole. And she did it and literally is, like, the best-selling artist I feel like of all-time now." The American Idol ex has praised the efforts of Swift fans for supporting Taylor all along. Kelly concluded, "It's so cool to see a fanbase really get behind her in that too because it's important. She's known for being such an incredible songwriter and the soundtrack to a lot of people's lives and that's her life. So, you should have the option of owning that." Kelly is now the daytime talk show host of her show and is also the owner of SiriusXM channel Kelly Clarkson Connection. She told E! at SiriusXM’s Major Next Generation event, "We called it Kelly Clarkson Connection because there is literally no connection with all the music I'm playing except that I like it. I've always wanted since I was a kid—I didn't understand why Whitney Houston and Nirvana couldn't be played on the same channel. Like, I like both, so why can't we do that?"

HBO Max Decides To Take Away 4K From Ad-Free Subscription Plans

HBO Max Decides To Take Away 4K From Ad-Free Subscription Plans

In May, HBO Max underwent a transformation and became Max. At that time, Warner Bros. Discovery assured existing subscribers on the ad-free plan that they could enjoy certain perks, such as 4K streaming, for a minimum of six months without any additional charges. Now, as we approach that six-month mark, it's time for a change. Max is reaching out to its affected customers, notifying them that while their monthly subscription cost of $15.99 will remain unchanged, they will lose a couple of perks starting on or after 5 December 2023. Specifically, 4K (and HDR) streaming will no longer be available for legacy customers. They will be limited to HD quality, similar to new signups for Max's ad-free tier. To continue enjoying 4K playback, legacy subscribers can upgrade to the "ultimate" plan, which costs $19.99 per month. This will be done for users who use their plan on smartphones and on their smart televisions. Legacy ad-free subscribers also had an extra concurrent stream (for a total of three) compared to the standard two offered to new $15.99 plan subscribers. Unfortunately, this perk will also be discontinued starting with the December billing cycle. There is currently no clarification from Warner Bros. Discovery regarding whether any subset of customers can retain these benefits. It's worth noting that downloads remain unaffected by these changes. Both legacy and current ad-free customers can still save up to 30 titles on supported devices for offline viewing when they don't have an internet connection. For those looking for a more budget-friendly option, Max offers a "with ads" tier priced at $9.99. While this tier doesn't include offline downloads, it does allow for two simultaneous streams and offers HD picture quality. Additionally, Max recently introduced an optional sports add-on that is free until 29 February 2024 but will cost an additional $9.99 per month for customers who wish to continue using it.
