Social Dilemma

A must watch documentary-drama: Social Dilemma.

This documentary-drama hybrid reveals how social media is reprogramming civilization with tech experts sounding the alarm on their own creations.

One quote that stuck in my head, because of it's simple truth.

A dead tree is worth more then a living one, and a dead whale is worth more then a living one.

...

The last straw that makes us wake up ... we see, we are the tree, we are the whale ... our attention can be mined
β€” Justin Rosenstein

This has to change!

So true.

A very impressive movie.

Let’s wake up!

How Can We Wake Up?

  1. Turn off all notifications and get used to reading emails, tweets, etc. when YOU decide.
  2. Try it for a day: watch ONLY the videos you search for, not those suggested to you. And then try it another day.
  3. Close one social media account.
