(Dan Brekke/KQED)\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>In a partnership with \u003ca href=\"https://wap.bwin.com/\">Bwin\u003c/a>, the world's largest publicly traded online gambling company, Zynga plans to release 180 real money games in Europe during the first half of 2013. Meanwhile, it is lobbying hard to legalize online gambling in the United States, where some analysts predict they could make a killing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gambling might seem like a tough public relations move for a video game company—especially one known for virtual farm animals and wide-eyed cartoon characters. But gaming expert Gabe Zichermann says if you look below the surface, Zynga's move makes sense.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Zynga's key intellectual assets are not really in spectacular content creation,” he says. “They are in platforms and scalability, [and] customer interaction.” He doesn't even think of Zynga primarily as a gaming company, but instead as an e-commerce and marketing company, and one that has many similarities with a casino.\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like gambling operations, social gaming companies function by hooking users, tracking their data, and monetizing their behaviors. Their business models looks more like a casino then a traditional console gaming company, Zichermann says. Even the products themselves at a company like Zynga have similar mechanics to casino games. Take titles like Farmville or Mafia Wars—they have random rewards and carefully timed payouts just like slot machines.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Serious Doubts\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But even with all the parallels, making the transition to real money gambling for Zynga won’t be as simple as pulling a lever. Kevin Flood, an online gambling consultant, has serious doubts about Zynga's prospects. “Organizationally they aren't prepared for it,” he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Social gaming is a whole different ball game than online gambling. Once it starts dealing with real money, Zynga will have to handle credit card fraud, implement age restrictions, and prove that rewards in each game are truly random. Government regulators will be scouring the code of every new game version they release.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Flood says the programming process will have to function much differently then it does now. Zynga will have to spend more time on version releases and make sure all the code it produces is top notch. “You can't just iterate, iterate and dump some code out there.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first test of the new process for Zynga will be the United Kingdom, one of the world's biggest online gambling markets and the major target for Zynga's upcoming 180 real-money releases. Online gambling has been completely legal in there for almost eight years and the playing field is already crowded. Other social media companies have already beaten Zynga to the table, like Seattle-based Big Fish.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What we are seeing in the UK is really encouraging,” says Carey DiJiulio, general manager of \u003ca href=\"http://www.bigfishgames.com\">Big Fish Casino\u003c/a>, the company's flagship game. “We have a slot machine live that we launched with in October. We added two more this week.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Big Fish began offering real-money games in the United Kingdom by partnering with \u003ca href=\"https://betable.com/\">Betable\u003c/a>, a San Francisco start-up that handles regulatory issues for social gaming companies wanting to jump into online gambling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Betable CEO Christopher Griffin says Zynga will have to change radically to compete with this flood of younger, more flexible start-ups: “For Zynga to really make a move in the real money space they would either have to work with us or effectively become a start up all over again. That's how difficult and how much a paradigm shift real money is from what they do.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Very Complicated\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kevin Flood sees Zynga's foray into Europe as mainly a way to prepare for the United States, which has the potential to be the world's largest online gambling market. He thinks with its brand and user base, Zynga's poised to make a killing here. “If they are marginally competent and that real money gaming works to a certain degree, I don't know if anyone is going to stop them.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Right now, the U.S. market is far from a sure bet. The Department of Justice in December 2011 issued a ruling that allows states to legalize and regulate online gambling. So far, only Nevada and Delaware have done so.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gerard Cunningham, the founder of online casino company Koolbit, predicts more states will soon legalize, and that eventually we will end up with a patchwork of different rules and regulations across the country. That’s already true of online horserace betting. “We will see some states passing poker, some doing slots, some not,” he says. “It is going to be very, very complicated.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That complicated patchwork of states will be a regulatory nightmare and will limit the market for games that require large pools of users, like online pokers. To achieve enough liquidity for a viable market, small states will need to sign treaties so that players can compete across borders. The goal of a big, integrated market, is one reason that Zynga is lobbying hard on the federal level.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Short-Term Play?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But gambling may just be a short-term strategy for Zynga, gaming expert Gabe Zichermann speculates. Longer term he thinks Zynga is trying to shift to the mobile market and leverage its virtual currency in new ways. Perhaps in the future users will be able to make online purchases with Zynga coins or Facebook credits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Zichermann believes this will be the next big battleground in social gaming, and a major reason why Zynga and Facebook are starting to go their separate ways. “They can't be collaborators the way that they were before,” he says. “They are going to end up brutal competitors.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the meantime, much will depend on how Zynga plays its online gambling cards.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Their business models looks more like a casino then a traditional console gaming company, Zichermann says. Even the products themselves at a company like Zynga have similar mechanics to casino games. Take titles like Farmville or Mafia Wars—they have random rewards and carefully timed payouts just like slot machines.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Serious Doubts\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But even with all the parallels, making the transition to real money gambling for Zynga won’t be as simple as pulling a lever. Kevin Flood, an online gambling consultant, has serious doubts about Zynga's prospects. “Organizationally they aren't prepared for it,” he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Social gaming is a whole different ball game than online gambling. Once it starts dealing with real money, Zynga will have to handle credit card fraud, implement age restrictions, and prove that rewards in each game are truly random. Government regulators will be scouring the code of every new game version they release.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Flood says the programming process will have to function much differently then it does now. Zynga will have to spend more time on version releases and make sure all the code it produces is top notch. “You can't just iterate, iterate and dump some code out there.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first test of the new process for Zynga will be the United Kingdom, one of the world's biggest online gambling markets and the major target for Zynga's upcoming 180 real-money releases. Online gambling has been completely legal in there for almost eight years and the playing field is already crowded. Other social media companies have already beaten Zynga to the table, like Seattle-based Big Fish.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What we are seeing in the UK is really encouraging,” says Carey DiJiulio, general manager of \u003ca href=\"http://www.bigfishgames.com\">Big Fish Casino\u003c/a>, the company's flagship game. “We have a slot machine live that we launched with in October. We added two more this week.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Big Fish began offering real-money games in the United Kingdom by partnering with \u003ca href=\"https://betable.com/\">Betable\u003c/a>, a San Francisco start-up that handles regulatory issues for social gaming companies wanting to jump into online gambling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Betable CEO Christopher Griffin says Zynga will have to change radically to compete with this flood of younger, more flexible start-ups: “For Zynga to really make a move in the real money space they would either have to work with us or effectively become a start up all over again. That's how difficult and how much a paradigm shift real money is from what they do.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Very Complicated\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kevin Flood sees Zynga's foray into Europe as mainly a way to prepare for the United States, which has the potential to be the world's largest online gambling market. He thinks with its brand and user base, Zynga's poised to make a killing here. “If they are marginally competent and that real money gaming works to a certain degree, I don't know if anyone is going to stop them.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Right now, the U.S. market is far from a sure bet. The Department of Justice in December 2011 issued a ruling that allows states to legalize and regulate online gambling. So far, only Nevada and Delaware have done so.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gerard Cunningham, the founder of online casino company Koolbit, predicts more states will soon legalize, and that eventually we will end up with a patchwork of different rules and regulations across the country. That’s already true of online horserace betting. “We will see some states passing poker, some doing slots, some not,” he says. “It is going to be very, very complicated.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That complicated patchwork of states will be a regulatory nightmare and will limit the market for games that require large pools of users, like online pokers. To achieve enough liquidity for a viable market, small states will need to sign treaties so that players can compete across borders. The goal of a big, integrated market, is one reason that Zynga is lobbying hard on the federal level.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Short-Term Play?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But gambling may just be a short-term strategy for Zynga, gaming expert Gabe Zichermann speculates. Longer term he thinks Zynga is trying to shift to the mobile market and leverage its virtual currency in new ways. Perhaps in the future users will be able to make online purchases with Zynga coins or Facebook credits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Zichermann believes this will be the next big battleground in social gaming, and a major reason why Zynga and Facebook are starting to go their separate ways. “They can't be collaborators the way that they were before,” he says. “They are going to end up brutal competitors.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the meantime, much will depend on how Zynga plays its online gambling cards.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Because it costs money to host hundreds and thousands and millions of people’s conversations and photos.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>My perspective is, just say, “Hey, I’m going to charge you for this experience.” I think we may see a new era of transparency as fallout from this.

Maybe this lack of clarity on Instagram’s part in terms of what they were trying to do with their terms of service might turn the tide in social networks, and especially in social photography services, and basically have the user understand, “Hey, this costs money.

Instead it was interpreted by many that we were going to sell your photos to others without any compensation. This is not true and it is our mistake that this language is confusing. To be clear: it is not our intention to sell your photos. We are working on updated language in the terms to make sure this is clear…\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The language we proposed also raised question about whether your photos can be part of an advertisement. We do not have plans for anything like this and because of that we’re going to remove the language that raised the question.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Ownership Rights\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instagram users own their content and Instagram does not claim any ownership rights over your photos.

Period.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Privacy Settings\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nothing has changed about the control you have over who can see your photos. If you set your photos to private, Instagram only shares your photos with the people you’ve approved to follow you.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>One of the most prominent Instagram users to publicly rebel yesterday was \u003ca href=\"http://richardkocihernandez.com/\">Richard Koci Hernandez\u003c/a>. Hernandez is an Emmy-ward winning multimedia artist who teaches at Cal's graduate journalism school. He's been described as an \"\u003ca href=\"http://www.slate.com/slideshows/life/instagram-superstar-richard-koci-hernandez-reflects.html\">Instagram superstar,\u003c/a>\" and his work using the app has been featured on the \u003ca href=\"http://lens.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/06/09/a-distinctive-voice-on-instagram/\">New York Times' Lens blog\u003c/a>. Yesterday, Hernandez \u003ca href=\"http://web.stagram.com/n/koci/\">posted the following on Webstagram\u003c/a>, an Instagram photo-viewing site.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>(B)y now you've all read about Instagram's new terms of service ... We're all going to feel different about what this means for us as individual creators and that is expected. I see myself as a 'cautious optimist,' so I have my fingers crossed that they, Instagram, will listen to the voice of the community and reverse the new terms of service, but I'm not holding my breath. I don't feel like debating the terms of service or being too nostalgic about the old days of Instagram, I feel that it's much better just to take our work and more importantly friendship and conversation to another place that respects our rights and ownership as creators. Let's move the party to a new location.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Until then, I'll be posting any new photographs on Flickr user name Koci Hernandez , Starmatic and EyeEm user Koci.

Last month, Atherton took the first step in developing a bicycle-pedestrian master plan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So far, the $350,000 remains untouched in the town’s general fund.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There are no restrictions as to how it can be spent,” said Widmer, who was quick to add that it is up to the Atherton City Council to decide how to allocate the money. “The intention was that we would more or less earmark that money so it’s used for traffic-related activity.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv id=\"DV-viewer-509347-atherton-facebook-agreement\" class=\"DV-container\">\u003c/div>\n\u003cp>\u003cscript src=\"//s3.amazonaws.com/s3.documentcloud.org/viewer/loader.js\">\u003c/script>\u003cbr>\n\u003cscript>\n DV.load(\"//www.documentcloud.org/documents/509347-atherton-facebook-agreement.js\", {\n width: 550,\n height: 600,\n sidebar: false,\n pdf: false,\n container: \"#DV-viewer-509347-atherton-facebook-agreement\"\n });\n\u003c/script>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This story was produced by The Bay Citizen, a project of the Center for Investigative Reporting.

Plugins are downloaded and added to your Web browser – Internet Explorer, Safari, Firefox and Chrome – and can be used for everything from blocking pop-up ads to translating pages from a different language. \u003c!--more-->Three of the plugins request permission to access your Facebook page, which is necessary to block Timeline in the first place. The other three, however, claim to block Timeline, but they also request permission to access data from your activity elsewhere on the Web, even if you’re not logged into Facebook, said Jason Ding, a research scientist at Barracuda. They can do so because the plugin is attached to your browser, which you use to crisscross the Internet, not just check your Facebook page. \u003c!--more-->Internet users are notorious for clicking through permission requests without reading the fine print, and the desire of Facebook’s customers to dodge the implementation of Timeline means they could be trading convenience for cyber-victimhood.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In this case, if you browse other websites – for example, when you purchase something – they can track your browser’s history and send it back to a server to know what you’re doing,” Ding said. “So if you fill out a form, or purchase something and put in your credit card information, they can access this information and send it back to the server.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s suspicious for such plugins to access information unrelated to what’s being promised – removing Timeline. Internet users, Ding said, have to ask themselves what personal information is sensible for a plugin, add-on or smartphone app to retrieve in order to carry out the task offered.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Anytime you have a single concern, just don’t click it or don’t install it,” Ding said. \"... They should only access your Facebook data, not other websites.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ding also argues that Google should do more to monitor products in the Chrome store and keep out those that seem to be asking for too much information.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They don’t have a very good mechanism to verify all these plugins, to check for malicious plugins or identify bad plugins,” Ding said. “So I think there’s more Google needs to do to protect Chrome users.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Google spokeswoman Veronica Navarrete said in an email that the “bad” plugins have since been removed as a result of Barracuda’s analysis, and she added that apps and extensions “can potentially access all browsing data.” The company says that apps and extensions go through security checks and reviews, but the Chrome store also relies on researchers like Barracuda to flag suspicious items.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You should review the permission messages and user reviews carefully when you install a Chrome app or extension and decide whether you trust the author with those privileges,” Navarrete wrote. “ … If an extension says it will improve a specific site, but it wants permission to every site, you should be suspicious and avoid it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This story was produced by The Bay Citizen, a project of the Center for Investigative Reporting.

Plugins are downloaded and added to your Web browser – Internet Explorer, Safari, Firefox and Chrome – and can be used for everything from blocking pop-up ads to translating pages from a different language. \u003c!--more-->Three of the plugins request permission to access your Facebook page, which is necessary to block Timeline in the first place. The other three, however, claim to block Timeline, but they also request permission to access data from your activity elsewhere on the Web, even if you’re not logged into Facebook, said Jason Ding, a research scientist at Barracuda. They can do so because the plugin is attached to your browser, which you use to crisscross the Internet, not just check your Facebook page. \u003c!--more-->Internet users are notorious for clicking through permission requests without reading the fine print, and the desire of Facebook’s customers to dodge the implementation of Timeline means they could be trading convenience for cyber-victimhood.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In this case, if you browse other websites – for example, when you purchase something – they can track your browser’s history and send it back to a server to know what you’re doing,” Ding said. “So if you fill out a form, or purchase something and put in your credit card information, they can access this information and send it back to the server.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Internet users, Ding said, have to ask themselves what personal information is sensible for a plugin, add-on or smartphone app to retrieve in order to carry out the task offered.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Anytime you have a single concern, just don’t click it or don’t install it,” Ding said. \"... They should only access your Facebook data, not other websites.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ding also argues that Google should do more to monitor products in the Chrome store and keep out those that seem to be asking for too much information.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They don’t have a very good mechanism to verify all these plugins, to check for malicious plugins or identify bad plugins,” Ding said. “So I think there’s more Google needs to do to protect Chrome users.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Google spokeswoman Veronica Navarrete said in an email that the “bad” plugins have since been removed as a result of Barracuda’s analysis, and she added that apps and extensions “can potentially access all browsing data.” The company says that apps and extensions go through security checks and reviews, but the Chrome store also relies on researchers like Barracuda to flag suspicious items.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You should review the permission messages and user reviews carefully when you install a Chrome app or extension and decide whether you trust the author with those privileges,” Navarrete wrote. “ … If an extension says it will improve a specific site, but it wants permission to every site, you should be suspicious and avoid it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This story was produced by The Bay Citizen, a project of the Center for Investigative Reporting.
