Det blev faktisk virkelighed for Facebooks australske brugere, da det sociale medie onsdag d. 17. februar valgte at blokere for deling af australsk nyhedsindhold. Det gjorde de fordi de var utilfredse med en ny lov, som var ved at blive gennemført, hvor Facebook skal betale for links til nyhedshistorier som brugerne deler.
Baggrunden for loven var at, Facebook og Google står for 70 procent af det australske online-annoncemarked, der omsætter for omkring syv milliarder dollar om året. De penge ville man gerne ha omfordelt til nyhedsmedierne.
Der hersker efterhånden en folkestemning om at der skal gøres op med den enorme indflydelse som techgiganter som Facebook og Googles har. At de skal tvinges til delvist at slippe eller i hvert fald at dele ud af den massive værdi de skaber i kraft af alle deres brugere.
Mikkel Flyverbom er Professor i Kommunikation og Digital Transformation ved Copenhagen Business School, CBS. Han kan give et overblik over fighten mellem Australien og Techgiganterne Facebook og Google, og hvordan den kamp mon vil påvirke os i resten af verden.
Marie Høstl taler også med er chefredaktør på SEIN, 24-årige Sebastian Dalsgaard, om hvordan de på SEIN bruger Facebook og hvordan de vil mærke de eventuelle konsekvenser af en ny lovgivning i Danmark.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
