Verbatim, from the transcripts: the passages where Onavo comes up
Meta (Audio) · Acquired
- ▶ 4:10:32 David Rosenthal Well, in 2013, Facebook acquired a small Israeli company called Onavo, and Onavo was exactly what you just said, Ben.
- ▶ 4:10:51 David Rosenthal You could install Onavo on your device and it would compress the data and then serve it to your apps.
- ▶ 4:11:33 Ben Gilbert Users who were using Onavo didn't download it with the intent of sharing, you know, their app usage data with Facebook.
- ▶ 4:11:45 David Rosenthal Either way, Onavo ended up being, like, a hugely important acquisition for Facebook, because it really tipped them off to WhatsApp and Snap, too.
