I had managed to avoid it for some weeks, it somehow felt like work, and I preferred to escape to a nature documentary or a book, but the Netflix algorithm is, Kaa-in-Jungle-Book-like-persuasive, and so it was that I found myself last week watching “The Social Dilemma”.
What I saw in The Social Dilemma wasn’t inconsistent with my own experiences working in tech, although as a parent of an 11 year old, Netflix’s storytelling made it next-level panic inducing, leading me to place all manner of social monitoring technology on my son’s phone.
