Tsū was a social network that was online from 2013 and publicly accessible from October 2014 and had a million users by the end of November 2014. At the beginning of January 2015, Tsu reached the 2 million user mark.
Tsu was founded in the USA by Sebastian Sobczak, Thibault Boullenger, and Drew Ginsburg and was only available in English. The interface and most of the functions (personal profile, friends, messages, status messages) were very similar to those of Facebook . Published content remains the property of the author. The company promised to distribute 90% of its advertising revenue to users.
Tsu ceased operations on August 2, 2016. Access to personal data was granted until August 31, 2016.
