It\\u2019s been a little bit since we last sat down to answer questions from our many TikTok followers. Today seems like a great time to get right back into it so let\\u2019s start with one about blockchain. Specifically, how do we envision blockchain penetrating into the mainstream since currently more than 90% of people have no idea what it is? It seems doomed to remain in a niche market.

What we expect to happen with blockchain is that a lot of organizations will start using it on their own and their customers will find themselves using it through various companies or other institutions. Put simply, one day we\\u2019ll wake up and realize that blockchain is being used all around us.\\xa0

What about Facebook, you ask? Unfortunately, that link still isn\\u2019t working. As before, Facebook constantly changes the rules which makes it very difficult for others to remain compliant with whatever those rules are. And let\\u2019s be honest, it\\u2019s easy to see how they would think it\\u2019s in Facebook\\u2019s interest to make it harder for companies like TARTLE to work with them. They haven\\u2019t got past seeing us as potential disruptors rather than an ally. Still, we have developers diligently working with the proper representatives to get us back on track with Facebook.\\xa0

Someone out there also proposed the idea of people getting paid to watch all those video ads that show up in the middle of your favorite YouTube show. After all, these ads are taking time from us and getting in the way of what we are actually there for. That sounds like a great idea to TARTLE. After all, just the simple act of watching that video generates useful data for the parent company. It doesn\\u2019t seem completely unreasonable that viewers get something for their trouble.\\xa0

We talk and even borderline gush about the potential for AI a fair amount here. One of our commenters brought up the common objection that AI will eventually displace a great number of jobs, causing massive ripple effects through society. That is a valid concern, at least at first. However, if we have learned anything since the dawn of the Industrial Revolution it\\u2019s that new technologies are indeed often disruptive and lead to the end of many jobs. However, they often lead to the creation of new ones. When wagons were replaced by cars, more jobs were available, not less. While computers put typewriter manufacturers out of business, they created a vast number of professions in design, manufacturing, and software engineers. There is no reason to assume that AI would be different in the long run. Not to mention, TARTLE is helping to create new opportunities in the digital age by giving you another revenue stream in the form of selling your data.

Another TikTok-er observed that major governments are starting to take notice of Bitcoin and are funneling money into it. The question is, do we think that they are realizing that the Federal Reserve and fiat currency is in trouble and are trying to take control of the crypto market? That\\u2019s a long question but the answer is short \\u2013 yes.

To wrap this up, we\\u2019ll answer a serious, if somewhat snarky question: who are we and what do we do with your data? To answer the first part, we are people on a mission. That mission is to help empower others to regain control of their data, to be able to share it as you wish. And not just to share it but to be rewarded for doing so both financially and in the satisfaction of using it to help a cause you care about. What do we do with it? Not a thing.

Keep the questions and comments coming and before long we\\u2019ll do another one of these sessions. And in the meantime, we\\u2019ll leave you with a question of our own \\u2013\\xa0
