On: Newspapers don’t need a special law to help compete with Google and Facebook

[rootusrootus]

Google takes about 75% of all ad revenue flowing through their platform? And I thought Apple had a sweet deal taking 30% of app store revenue.

No, Goog takes 32% if you're a nobody. I think it's 50% on YouTube. Who knows what heavier hitters get.

If you're big enough, you can do direct deals with big enough advertisers and low-level geo-targeting.

Where are you getting that number from?

Just a misunderstanding, I suppose, of the meaning of "Google and Facebook take 76% of all advertising revenue."

Google Ad != Appstore App
