This is a (so far) fascinating and somewhat disturbing docu-drama on the effects (intended or un-intended, depending on who you ask, I guess) of the big tech companies on driving societal behaviors and the apparent damage it is doing to the civil society.
To be clear, I've only started this but the trailer was highly compelling and the first 30 minutes are just as riveting, in my opinion. (Got tired, I'm old, will finish tonight)
I've long thought that we as a society need to be much more disciplined than we are on the use of technology as a form of social life and allowing it to affect us.
I don't want this string to turn into a hot debate, but hopefully it will yield some interesting discussion and perhaps more importantly, some awareness of the potential dangers of over-using technology as an "input" into our daily lives.
The cast is made up of former highly influential tech company leaders from google, Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter, and so much more... it's definitely worth exploring.
