Twitter Fake Users Get the Axe on Social Media
The Mass Exodus of Fake Accounts on Twitter The day of reckoning on social media has arrived on Twitter. Several accounts are currently seeing their user count drop like their level of talent at a dance contest. Personally, I love it.

Facebook News Is Bad for Democracy, But Great for their Stock Price
Instead of Taking Editorial Responsibility, Facebook Is Just Using Random People in a Survey as Scapegoats Facebook is overhauling their algorithms to better serve the companies that pay them the most in advertising. They have masked it as a user experience problem, but it is a much larger problem of a platform creating wealth through disparity.

Hangout Fest Kicks Off the Festival Season Announcements with Kendrick Lamar, ODESZA, and Portugal. The Man
Additional Acts Set to Perform: ZEDD, The Killers, Halsey, The Chainsmokers, and Over 60 Acts Goldenvoice and the Hangout Music Festival have announced dozens of live acts set to perform in Gulf Shores, Alabama from May 18-20.
