How A Money-Losing Snap Could Be Worth So Much

Summary | Snapchat is valued extremely highly on the market despite the fact that it is not making any profit yet. There are no concrete plans on how Snapchat wants to secure profit except that it has plenty of users - the vast majority of the American population aged 18-35. Finance experts disagree on Snapchat's worth. Most think it is not nearly worth its current market price but others see it as promoting a new mode of communication where users substitute language with images.

Summary | The EU has renewed the laws tied to data privacy originally made in 1995. The new laws now enable users of online platforms such as Facebook to sue these companies in their home country rather than having to travel. Also, some countries lift the legal age required to join social media from 13 to 16 years old. Young people under the age of 16 are legally not allowed to enter into a contract around data privacy with Facebook.
