🔸X Is Working to Lure Smaller Advertisers as Elon Musk Keeps Alienating Big Brands Social-media platform has had preliminary talks with Amazon to sell ads through e-commerce giant’s ad-buying software X's advertising team is trying out partnerships with other ad platforms that might help it attract small and midsize businesses, which has been a key ingredient in the success of tech titans like Meta and Alphabet's Google. X has discussed a potential partnership with Amazon that would make X ads available through Amazon's ad-buying software, according to people familiar with the matter. This deal, if reached, could draw in some of the millions of small and midsize businesses that peddle everything from paper clips to slipcovers on the e-commerce giant's marketplace and buy ads through its tools, the people said. The talks were preliminary and might not lead to a deal, the people said. wsj.com/business/media/x-is-…

🔸Binance founder Changpeng Zhao is too rich to leave the U.S. before criminal sentencing, judge says Billionaire Binance founder Changpeng Zhao cannot leave the United States ahead of his criminal sentencing because of his “enormous wealth” and lack of U.S. ties, a federal judge ruled. The ruling reverses a previous decision allowing Zhao, also known as CZ, to travel to his home in the United Arab Emirates before he is sentenced on Feb. 23. In siding with federal prosecutors, U.S. District Judge Richard Jones acknowledged, “This is an unusual case.” cnbc.com/2023/12/08/binance-…
