Quote

“I think mobile has won, I think we can say that, right? Mobile over Desktop has won, and the problem with mobile is that everything is set up for you to make an emotional or quick decision…We want clients to make really good, well-informed decisions, and the device that has won, mobile, and the way we put technology in mobile is actually not suited to make that well-informed decision.” - [04:45] Robbie Cannon
