It can be difficult these days to remember the almost idyllic promise of social media when it first entered the general consumer consciousness.

Rather, it’s to remind one of how much has changed when it comes to views and uses of Facebook, Twitter and other such platforms.
That reminder sets up a story recently told via a PYMNTS podcast discussion with Yinglian Xie, CEO and co-founder at DataVisor, a company that uses artificial intelligence (AI) to defend against online fraud and other such digital attacks.
