Description

The NCAA just made it so college athletes can exploit their name, image, and likeness for personal profit. It's about time! The organization didn't want this outcome, but is getting ahead of the way the wind is blowing before the Supreme Court makes them. Expect an immediate land gram among managers, PR, agents, influencer marketers, and more. Also, expect a LOT more college athletes to be way more public online.

Meanwhile. Head of Instagram Adam Mosseri says his platform is no longer solely a photo-sharing app. It's gotta innovate to keep up with massive competition (aka TikTok), which is also good for Facebook because it needs some competition to fend of the Feds.

Head of Facebook App Fidji Simo took some shots at Apple, saying it's 30% take on the App store is crippling to creators. It's the latest public pop shot in an ongoing rivalry that's been years in the making.

Also, YouTube put its name on a concert venue and Josh was quoted in the New York Times and told no one about it.
