Likewise, bringing in Ad money would be a few more hundreds, because you need to chase leads in all countries.
Getting the Ads to work? That's tech and I'd be surprised if it was less than 100 people, too.
- bushbaba 4y agoTracking ads conversions, targeting, refinement of models, latency reduction , data analytics, ads sales, sales ops, etc. yeah easily 1000 employees all in.
- Yoric 4y agoI was only thinking of getting ads to work (from displaying ad previews to announcers to actually delivering them). If you add all the sales, analytics and performance, yeah, that climbs quickly.
- tiahura 4y agoNot tech but I'm convinced that just answering LEO requests from all over the world takes at least 500 people. I subpoena telcos all the time. My sense is that the number is closer to 2 to 3 dozen.
- Yoric 4y agoFor the entire world? How does someone from an office in (say) Morocco checks whether a subpoena equivalent from (for instance) Lybia is legit?
- donkeyd 4y agoFor a second I was confused how Starlink requests were relevant for Twitter. Then I realized you meant 'law enforcement officer' not 'low-earth orbit'.
