I wonder, given the grilling that Zuckerberg got the last year, if Google would rather avoid replacing them in the near-monopoly position of news gatekeeper. On the other hand, Twitter seems to be fine with it, since the Facebook pivot away from news might be what it is using to reverse its decline.

- robertAngst 8y agoCurious too. Are there any stats on this? Btw, quit fb and havent needed to look back. replaced it with... HN, reddit, crappy twitter, instagram, and snapchat.
