To open pod 226, we discuss a $10 billion hit caused by Apple.<\/p>\n<p>In this story, we take a look at the business impact Apple\u2019s app-tracking policy has had on major social networks including Facebook, Snapchat, and more. From there, we discuss Facebook\u2019s change to Meta.<\/p>\n<p>Our third story takes us back to school, with a trip to Harvard, where there is a bit of tomfoolery and black hat SEO going on with the university\u2019s self-publishing system.<\/p>\n<p>After that, we talk about German authorities\u2019 exposing one of the REvil group\u2019s major players.
