One problem in these kind of documentaries I find is, they show us that we are getting manipulated into watching Facebook and YouTube. Ok, but there a two questions - 1) What is the problem? 2) What is the solution?

So, I am becoming a robot by watching whatever they are showing me. What is originality? What am I going to do otherwise if I don't watch Facebook and YouTube? Am I missing spending time with my family? Is that what this is all about.

It's a must watch movie. I just wish they gave more time for discussing the counter measures. Yes, we need stronger data security and privacy laws that empowers the users. Yes, we can quit social media once and for all. But what about common people who uses it for essential purposes like connecting with their family, friends etc? What can they do for the time being until better laws are made? I wish more points were given in this regard.

Not telling me anything i don't already know or that hasnt been brought up a million other places, adds nothing new to a (admittedly important) conversation. i do not recommend. Maybe it would be good for someone to watch if they legitimately have no idea about how social media works and are yet to read anything at all about its political and journalistic impacts, but those stupid dramatizations are unnecessary at best and hypocritically misleading at worst. Not only is this scary, it happens to also be true. Government needs to step in with regulation before it is too late, which it may already be.
The question is, what happens if one of these companies want to push a certain agenda? What if they do not like the way the person thinks? We are seeing this now. The tech companies are deciding what we can think. If they are not happy with our thinking they will not let us post, ban us or decide how our first amendment is used.
What happens if they decide x person should be elected because they are more favorable to their position? I mean they can buy these people but how many votes can they change? How many votes can the AI push their way?
Is it too late.

Extremely important film. Find the balance. Get off your phone.
