Rough Draft
Snapchat is one of the biggest social media platforms today. Snapchat is an app that you can send someone a picture or video and have it go away after a certain period of time. Ever since it was created many things have been added like including snap maps, group stories, bitmojis and many more. Many people have sued Snapchat for all types of reasons like patent infringements. Companies are not the only ones that are upset with Snapchat, Snapchats recent updates have made the users furious.

through out the history of Snapchat they have added many things that have changed the app for the better. Snap maps which are "like a funky GPS locator for all your kids' Snapchat friends."(Jolly .05b) It allows your location when on the app so anyone on your friends list can see you. Snap maps has an option though if you do not want to have your location seen, you can go into ghost mode; "they can go into "Ghost Mode" and control exactly who can see where they are. First, tap the little gear icon in the upper right corner, then scroll down to where it says "Who can … See my location." Tap it, and click "Ghost Mode" so it turns on."(Jolly .05b) this makes it where no one can see your location on snap maps. Snapchat also added stories, "a collection of posts that stay viewable for a limited amount of time."(Fitzpatrick 4). Going along with stories they added group stories which is when you and a collective group of friends can make a story together; "group Stories will disappear if 24 hours pass without a user adding a new photo or video."(Fitzpatrick 4) They also added bitmojis, "which allows people to create funny emojis designed to bear a striking resemblance to their physical appearance" and can be used in pictures videos and even chats.(IBT) and tons of more updates to fix the app that Changed the overall look in Snapchat as well as changing how certain things in the app came about.

Not everyone is thrilled by Snapchats recent updates, Snapchat changed there entire layout of the app. In the CNBC Ingrid Angulo goes on to tell us reasons why people are disliking the recent update like how "Incoming Snapchats have priority at the top of the page, but the Stories and conversations look nearly identical and are no longer in chronological order.Instead, Snapchat uses an algorithm to show you Stories from friends it thinks you care about most."(Angulo) As well as, "Previously watched Stories used to be available on the "Stories" page to rewatch until they expired, but they seemingly disappear after one watch now.(Angulo) Snapchat used to have it where you could swipe left and go see all of your friends stories, but now if you swipe left its full of sponsored content and celebrities Snapchat videos. Other companies are suing Snapchat for all sorts of reasons. the Canadian company Investel Capital Corp. sued Snapchat for patent infringment. They are seeking "monetary compensation and an order that prohibits California-based Snapchat from infringing on its patent in the future."(The Canadian Press) Snapchat also had conflict with Giphy. The reason for this is, "Giphy is in hot water with Snapchat after people spotted a racist and hateful GIF when searching for GIFs to use on the platforms." (Beck) There has been a decline in the use of Snapchat though, due to the fact of the new updates and a Kardashian posting how she does not like to use the app as much anymore.

Article draft
Brian, I don't see your Works Cited, so it's hard to comment on how your research is going. Your draft includes some interesting ideas, but so far it's only personal opinion. You've gotten some good suggestions from other students here, but you'll actually have to mine some good sources to add reliable information.JAirhart 17:26, 26 March 2018 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Airhartcomp (talk • contribs)
