It’s Wednesday. People all over the world are willingly sharing their lives on social media from day to day without understanding how their data is being used. What’s going on behind the curtain at Facebook, Twitter, and other social media companies might disturb you. In the Netflix documentary, The Social Dilemma, Silicon Valley insiders reveal how social media is reprogramming civilization by exposing what’s hiding behind your screen. What are the consequences of our growing dependence on social media and who has a right to your personal information? Questions like these grow in importance every day.
This documentary was recommended to me by a family member. Being in the IT business for many years, I wasn’t expecting to learn anything new, but I was wrong—very wrong. If you’re a Netflix subscriber, I recommend checking it out.
