Review of The Social Dilemma (2020) by Discmand — 19 Sep 2020
This is probably the most important documentary you can watch this year. I've been researching this topic for over two years now and was thrilled to see this now. High level exececutives of social media companies talk about the dopamine monster they have created.
There were many new insights for me in this well done documentary. I also like that they illustrated the problem with a fictitious family. Since they didn't include early Facebook executive Chamath Palihapitiya's (responsible for growth within Facebook) quote to Stanford students that I love, I can quote him here, without spoilering anything, but the quote sums up the movies pretty well: "I can control my decision, which is that I don’t use that sh##.
I can control my kids’ decisions, which is that they’re not allowed to use that sh##.
