“Une Startup d’État est un service public numérique développé par une équipe autonome pour répondre à un problème lié à une politique publique, financée par une administration porteuse. Elle n’a pas pour objectif de faire du profit et n’a le plus souvent pas de personnalité juridique propre au moment de son lancement (même si elle peut devenir par la suite un service national au sein d’une administration ou au sein d’un GIP autonome). Sa vocation est de maximiser son impact social en répondant aux besoins de ses utilisateurs”.

Créée par trois Français en 2011, la communauté rassemble désormais quatre-vingts groupes « Wanted » dans le monde et au total plus de 800 000 internautes qui ne se connaissent pas mais se partagent des bons plans, des conseils, du soutien. Toutefois, ses administrateurs, Luc Jaubert, Christian Delachet et Jérémie Ballarin, ne gagnent pas d’argent avec cette activité et doivent s’appuyer, pour le faire fonctionner, sur l’aide de dizaines de modérateurs volontaires. En cause : une règle imposée par Facebook, qui interdit de monétiser les audiences des groupes, par exemple avec la publicité. « Souvent, c’est le manque de moyens qui les freine, et c’est pour cela que nous avons créé le Facebook Community Leadership Program », explique d’ailleurs le réseau social dans un communiqué. pour ces mêmes raisons, Facebook est en train de tester l’accès payant aux groupes.

“If you haven’t heard of Ninja, ask the nearest 12-year-old. He shot to fame in March after he and Drake played Fortnite, the video game phenomenon in which 100 players are dropped onto an island and battle to be the last one standing while building forts that are used to both attack and hide from opponents. At its peak, Ninja and Drake’s game, which also featured rapper Travis Scott and Pittsburgh Steelers receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster, pulled in 630,000 concurrent viewers on Twitch, Amazon’s livestreaming platform, shattering the previous record of 388,000. Since then, Ninja has achieved what no other gamer has before: mainstream fame. With 11 million Twitch followers and climbing, he commands an audience few can dream of. In April, he logged the most social media interactions in the entire sports world, beating out the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo, Shaquille O’Neal and Neymar”.

“Car makers are collecting massive amounts of data from the latest cars on the road. Now, they’re figuring out how to make money off it. With millions of cars rolling off dealer lots with built-in connectivity, auto companies are gaining access to unprecedented amounts of real-time data that allow them to track everything from where a car is located to how hard it is braking and whether or not the windshield wipers are on.
The data is generated by the car’s onboard sensors and computers, and then stored by the auto maker in cloud-based servers. Some new cars have as many as 100 built-in processors that generate data”.

“An idle Android device communicates with Google nearly 10 times more frequently as an Apple device communicates with Apple servers. These results highlighted the fact that Android and Chrome platforms are critical vehicles for Google’s data collection. Again, these experiments were done on stationary phones with no user interactions. If you actually use your phone the information collection increases with Google”.
“In fact, location information constituted 35 percent of all the data samples sent to Google”.
