ββπ Facebook Portal
#Facebook just unveiled Portal, a home video chat camera with auto-zoom & built-in #Amazon Alexa - for the people who still trust Facebook!
With #FacebookPortal, you canβt watch #YouTube; thereβs no web browser; #WhatsApp and #Instagram are nowhere to be found; and you canβt send or receive normal Facebook messages, even if theyβre video recordings. If you buy the Portal, you have to really want to video chat with other people on Facebook, and do so from one room in your home, on something other than the phone or laptop or tablet that you likely already have.

With all the privacy issues surrounding Facebook, Portal seems like a stupidly brave bet from them.
