Today's Story Highlights

Retailers' Most Common Cloud Mistakes and How to Avoid Them
It's easy to understand why so many retail organizations have moved
their infrastructure to the cloud. Cloud-based architecture allows
provisioning nearly infinite compute instances on-demand in minutes.
There is no need for upfront licensing or infrastructure costs, meaning
a faster ROI can usually be realized. Best of all are the unmatched
agility and scalability of the cloud.

Can Brands Protect Privacy While Personalizing?
I sometimes think personalization is the best thing that happened to
humankind in terms of marketing. As a consumer, I love getting
suggestions on what to buy, especially when it's exactly what I need.
Sometimes I feel as though I'm under constant surveillance, however, so
I turn on my ad blockers, I surf in private mode, and I report ads that
are not relevant to me.

Internet's Crowds Stunting Its Growth: Trends Report
More than half the world's population -- 3.8 billion people -- have
access to the Internet and that may not be a good thing for business,
according to digital savant Mary Meeker's Internet Trends 2019 report.
Global Internet user growth has slowed to 6 percent year over year, down
from 7 percent, noted the Bond Capital general partner. The Asia-Pacific
region leads in both users and potential.

Are You Gish-Galloping Your Business Toward Disruption?
Recent events have led to many people learning about a long-understood
rhetorical tactic called "Gish galloping." Named after creationist Duane
Gish, it means confronting an opponent with a rapid-fire series of
arguments -- including half-truths, misrepresentations and outright
lies. Confronted with such a BS barrage, the opponent may try to refute
each assertion, which is a losing proposition.

China-US Trade Tension Is Causing Irreparable Damage to High-Tech
While trade disputes between countries are nothing new and seldom are
remembered, the ongoing one between China and the United States may
change the course of the electronics industry going forward. In the
beginning of the dispute proposed tariffs excluded electronics for the
most part. The U.S. even modified some initial proposals to avoid
impacting Apple and other U.S. tech companies.
