> This presentation has little interesting information, maybe internet and mobile innovation have peaked?

Come on! Theres 350+ slides with a lot of good data points. Just some quick things I made a mental note of:

- half the world is on the internet. Thats incredible - and the implications are huge now and will be even more so as we get to full coverage...

- ad blockers are popular everywhere and growing. Mobile ad blocker usage is >50% in Malaysia. Why? Also China mobile > 10%

- The USA Income Statement was a nice visual. USA has been running a net deficit on the order of 18% for the last 25 years. Is it sustainable?

~ 30% of "revenue" comes from individual income taxes. Only 9% from corporations. Is that fair?
