If you have not seen Social Dilemma, it is a MUST SEE documentary. We all live on the internet - Facebook, Tweet, we search, like and share--but what are the consequences of what we post and agree to on social media? I was shocked to learn what is being done to reinforce peoples thoughts and preferences and to keep us hooked on staying online.
Using our preferences based on the cookies they gather (each time we click "agree") two people doing a search on the same topic will get completely different results, based on what social media algorithms determine we want reinforced in our belief systems and buying preferences.
For example, One person may search " BLM Protests" and come up with peaceful protest and people praying, while another may search "BLM Protests" come up with rioting and people standing outside their home with guns to protect themselves. It limits what we see and how we understand the world around us. Please watch and pass it on!
