do these zips represent what fb makes available to advertisers/app publishers/partners/researchers or is it just a dump of everything fb has on you as a user? seems there's at least a few different ways for your info to leak... what exactly is provided to an advertiser? what exactly is provided to an app publisher, assuming the user granted permissions to access the phone & contacts? certainly personally identifiable info in the 2nd case.

is there no safeguard against 1 idiot contact sharing YOUR info without YOUR consent?


At this stage, it's probably safe to assume that if Facebook has collected it, there will be a price tag to go along with it.


reaper is popular. it's cheap (or free). i also like tracktion. v4 is free and it's a powerful, simple, single screen daw. there's always audacity too, but it's pretty limited. i've also heard good things about wavosaur (free). dumb name, but simple for quick audio editing.


i'm rooting for this thing so hard. i have hundreds of games sans controller support that i never play because i run big picture mode in the living room with an xbox controller for the few games that do have controller support.


this has the potential to be much worse than a shady checkout screen. for every vip charge they aren't even shipping a real product. they give credits. if a company files bankruptcy those credits and gift cards will be worthless because it is considered a liability. so they don't even have to keep a real inventory (which would be an asset with real value).

(1) get funding (2) ? (3) bankruptcy (4) profit
