Вчера была новость о желании Яндекса продать «Новости» и «Дзен», и о том, что на них претендует VK.
Про новости говорить нечего, с ними всё более менее понятно. Куда интереснее Дзен. Изначально он создавался с благой целью — дать Рунету недостающую площадку для длинных текстов и авторских статей. Но, как это нередко бывает, его сгубила жадность. Трэш и мусор давали лучшие метрики и лучшие доходы с рекламы. Из-за этого и на самом Дзене появилась рекомендация «Пишите как можно чаще» и читатель там установился соответствующий.
С невероятной скоростью Дзен превратился в помойку из неадаптированных ссылок на внешние сайты вперемешку со статьями в духе «Десять самых крутых супергероев марвел» в разделе про кино. Содержание и форма соответствующие: неграмотные тексты от школьников, бестолковые бессодержательные комментарии от домохозяек.
Его, конечно, пытались из этого болота вытянуть, а сейчас вообще стали превращать в русскую альтернативу Ютубу, но, кажется, то ли слишком поздно, то ли никаких ресурсов уже не хватает.
Непонятно только, что с ним будет делать VK. Собственную текстовую платформу VK убивает уже не первый год. Даже если не брать в расчёт общую негативную репутацию соцсети — алгоритмическая лента, которая скорее вам покажет мем с котиком, чем хорошую статью, не оставляет авторам здесь особого пространства для развития. Ну и какие-нибудь совершенно дебильные «Клипы» для не слишком развитых детей делают персональной кнопкой на главном экране приложения, а тексты и статьи не делают — акцент площадки вполне ясен.
Моя гипотеза: VK окончательно добьёт текстовую часть Дзена, сделав её UI/UX ещё более невыносимым, чем сейчас. И на этих костях построит себе свой Ютуб. Возможно даже в будущем этот видеодзен заменит встроенный раздел с видео тут. И может даже Клипы схлопнут с дзеновским аналогом коротких видео.

Alhamdulillah, I finished writing this book in few days.
I wrote this book to help my friends:
Nurkhankyzy Aiya, Acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
and all those children who are fighting for their lives.
Why is the book called that? AIYA MMD - means Attack and Introduction or (Android and IOS), start Your Adventure in Mobile Malware Development. also AIYA means AIYA Nurkhankyzy.
I will be very happy if this book helps at least one person to gain knowledge and learn the science of cybersecurity. The book is mostly practice oriented.
Of course the book is not as big as my previous works, this is because firstly I needed to urgently start a fundraising campaign for the Aiya and secondly many things remain confidential (NDA)
Mobile malware - it's a constantly evolving battlefield. What you learned here is just the beginning. Tools change, defenses adapt, but the mindset stays the same: think like the adversary to build stronger defenses.
This book is dedicated to my wife, Laura, and my children, Yerzhan and Munira. I would like to express my deep gratitude to my friends and colleagues.
Special thanks to #Russian#hacking#community, Medet Turin 2600.kz, BlackIce #hackerspace from Almaty (Kazakhstan) and my friends from Middle East countries: Kingdom of Bahrain, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, UAE.
All examples are practical cases for educational and research purposes only.
