The Social Dilemma
Happy #BLACKFriday! We hope you all were able to enjoy some time off - hopefully with a few friends/family despite CoVID - for Thanksgiving.
In this week's pre-recorded episode of THE OFFICIALLY STREET PODCAST, we discuss a recently released documentary on Netflix titled "/the social dilemma_". The documentary spills tea on a lot of details surrounding the ins and outs of how social media works. Some things we've already known or have been curious about, other things were pretty mind blowing to learn about.

- Jaron says “It’s the gradual, slight, imperceptible change in your own behavior and perception that is the product…”
- It was mentioned that industries have begun investing in human futures, similar to how there are pork belly futures. They have found ways to determine and manipulate human behavior at scale.
Is this the last generation of people that will know life before the matrix? Because can you know if you’re in the matrix if you were born in it?
Should data integrity, or should I say data privacy, or maybe even just SOMETHING regarding the security of an individuals private and personal information be added as an amendment to the constitution?
