# Show Notes We talk about Facebook’s much-discussed study of user responses to variations in their News Feed: what did Facebook do, exactly? Was it ethical? What responsibilities do users and consumers of different media (social included) have? What reponsibilities do companies have to their users? ## Chapters • Intro (1:08) • Facebook’s Social (Network) Science (1:08–12:02) • User Responsibility (12:02–17:46) • Corporate Ethics (17:46–27:00) • Conclusion (27:00–30:00) # Music • “Summerooms Social” (http://summerooms.bandcamp.com/track/summerooms-social), from Summerooms [original master] by Summerooms.
