Has anyone watched the "Social Dilemma Documentary" on Netflix? Some incredible food for thought.

- @Strahil Savov Yup agreed - its a great watch. I have no desire to delete my social channels. I think it would be too impractical. But that doesn't mean that I won't change the way I use social media...
- @Mary Raftopoulos Thanks for the suggestion, Mary. I'll add this to my list :) Have a great week ahead!
- @Edgar Kay Oh mate, I couldn't agree with you more. Would be extremely concerning if this wasn't on your radar. Ethical design for the win!
- Yah just watched it. If you are tech designer and you find anything new in there that a certain sign that you’re very bad at what you do :)
- Yes, and I thougth it was awesome! Alot of it I was kinda aware of but it totally blew my mind. Worth a watch, for sure.*Also check out Disclosure and Feminists: What were they thinking?
- It was in the recommended list on Netflix and I just give it a minute, such a great documentary!
- @Nicola Tait agreed - and ex engineers feel the same. A modern day Frankenstein's monster
- @Asher Harris that makes two of us!
- @Creative Conscience yup, the concept of dark pattern design is kinda frightening. I'd rather be in control of my social media instead of being negatively influenced by UI/UX
- @Dee-Lee Live yup agreed - I'm picking updated my phone a lot less because of it!
- @Ruby Lindsay thanks for the recommendation, Ruby! Will add it to the reading. Always up for a bit of life changing literature!
- @Asher Harris Same here Asher. Reminding myself that my phone is a tool... And not my master
- @Erin Rhode couldn't agree more. Was interesting to see actual stats on mental health too. The data doesn't lie
- It has made me question alot about what I do and how easily influenced I have been possibly. Though I think the Facebook platform itself has lost it's way a bit personally.........
- It was a great watch, I look at my phone and apps in general very differently now.
- yes, brilliant. share it more people need to know this stuff. cheers Adon.
- Yes I thought it was awesome! Makes you think twice for sure! I will have to check out the book that @RubyLindsay recommended!
- Yes, brilliant watch. Really makes you become more careful with phone usage.
