Summary | Facebook will stop its "ethnic affinity" practice that helps advertisers reach ethnic groups with housing, extension of credit, and employment ads. However, policymakers and civil rights leaders have been concerned about the use of the ethnic affinity option; those ads discriminate against people. The privacy and public policy manager at Facebook said that it is important to keep the option to include and exclude groups for advertisers.

Summary | Words do not always express the exact feeling people want to transmit, so emojis can help. Thanks to a new app (SpeakEmoji), you can now translate what you want to say (voice) into emojis. Emojis are a new universal language, so this new app is suited for our digital era. The app was first designed to help parents communicate through emojis. In 2015, an emoji was chosen as word of the year because it represented the mood and preocuppations of the year.
