On March 3, Accenture announced the acquisition of Ookla from Ziff Davis for $1.2 billion. Ookla specializes in the internet speed test tool Speedtest and the service status monitoring platform Downdetector, which are highly favored by ordinary users and media. Its business involves extensive data collection and analysis. Accenture's CEO stated that after the acquisition, they will leverage Ookla's data to help clients expand AI applications, build a trusted data foundation, and enhance technical support for public sector clients. After the acquisition is completed, Accenture plans to maintain Ookla's business operation model, but individual users may face potential changes in areas such as privacy policies.
