700 | News from the EDGE | Week of 7.29.2024

Join us for episode 700 of EDGE of the Web! We're grateful for each and every listener who keeps us motivated to push out new content each and every week, so raise a glass as episode 700 gets underway! Reddit has limited all but one search engine from accessing its content. Surprise, surprise… It's Google. This move is sparked by an ongoing trend of publishers and websites aiming to protect their data from AI training models, although Google is an exception, likely due to their recent $60 million deal.  Cookie abolishment put on hold! That's right, Google is switching up once again. Recent Google plans show they have gone back on their word and will keep cookies on Chrome; instead, they will incorporate updated user preference management.  What the heck is a GEO? Well, it may be your future.
