What if we told you your attention was all that mattered? Your complex, human existence is reduced to a qualitative judgement based on how much time you spend in front of a screen.

In his latest documentary, Jeff Orlowski invites numerous ex-employees of the world's biggest social media companies, to reveal unpleasant truths about how the "eyeball-grabbing" business operates. How are we shaped by what we see, and how is it that people seem to have such drastically different opinions on the ethics of technology?

In this episode, join us in breaking down everything addressed in the film, and what they spell for the future of networking, surveillance, and ethics.
