The Internet back end since the invention of the Internet has been a U.S. controlled entity.

For the last couple years, Facebook has talked about the massive growth of video on its platform. It turns out Facebook may have exaggerated a key metric - the average amount of time viewers spent watching each video - to advertisers by as much as 80%, according to The Wall Street Journal. A few weeks ago, Facebook reportedly notified advertisers that it had accidentally been excluding videos that users watched for less than 3 seconds from its "Average Duration of Video Viewed" measurement. It's introducing a new measurement, called "Average Watch Time," that will include all videos, regardless of how long people watched them. Publicis Media, which buys ads for clients, later heard from Facebook that the original measurement was probably exaggerated by 60% to 80%, according to a letter Publicis sent its clients, which The Journal saw. The letter also suggested Publicis was upset with the way Facebook was spinning the mistake by introducing a new metric: "Essentially, they're coming up with new names for what they were meant to measure in the first place,â The Journal reports Publicis saying.

Google is finally releasing its long-awaited messaging app: Allo. Originally announced at its developers conference in May, Allo is billed as a "smart" messaging app. That's because of its built-in Google Assistant, an artificial intelligence-powered virtual assistant that can do everything from recommend nearby restaurants to answering questions you have. Because this is a messaging app, the Google Assistant can be easily summoned to join the group conversations you're having friends, acting as an on-hand expert to provide advice and to resolve disputes.  Allo is designed to be a counterpart to Duo, Google's video chat app that launched in mid-August. Business Insider got the chance to try Allo for ourselves and test out its features ahead of the launch.

"Madison Avenue" may not still be where adland is based, but plenty of creatives are still keeping the spirit of advertising's glory years alive with their campaigns. From glitzy Super Bowl spots, to apps that save lives, Business Insider's pick of the most creative people in the advertising industry in 2016 includes a portfolio of truly innovative work from across the globe. Methodology: Earlier this year we put out a call for the advertising world to send in its nominations. To prevent nominations from being self-serving, we also asked each agency to nominate someone from a competing agency or brand. We also researched recent award winners, and the creatives who have generated new and buzzworthy work. For the ranking, factors we considered included recognition within the industry, seniority in their respective agencies, size of the shop, and standout creative work that has garnered attention outside the advertising world over the past 12 months. 30. Kathleen Swanson, creative director at Anomaly LA![]() Swanson recently wrote Gatorade's Emmy-nominated retirement film for Peyton Manning, which was based on the hundreds of handwritten notes he had sent to family, teammates, and friends during his NFL career. She joined Anomaly from TBWA\Chiat\Day LA in July this year. Back at her former agency, she was also working on the Airbnb account and worked on the home sharing site's biggest global ad to date, "Never a Stranger,"  plus a Disney "Jungle Book"-inspired ad that showed treehouses you can rent on the site.

William Esparza, executive creative director at R/GA Hustle![]() Esparza was a teenage graffiti artist but after graduating at the Art Center College of Design he jumped into the ad industry, working at agencies including MAL, The Martin Agency, Cutwater, and TBWA\Chiat\Day. At RGA Hustle, Esparza has been particularly instrumental in driving the agency's partnership with Apple's Beats. The agency brought home a haul of nine Cannes Lions awards this year for its "Straight Outta Somewhere" meme generator, which allowed people to create their own NWA-style logos. More than 9 million memes were created, with everyone from The White House to other brands, such as Snickers, taking part.  See the rest of the story at Business Insider |
