    Utopia or oblivion

    I was so excited when I read the two textbooks on General Theory of Communication... they all came back.

    Audience Commodity Theory: The main product of mass media is the audience's attention. Social media packages the audience's leisure time (attention) to advertisers. "If you're not paying to use...

    Break free from the matrix.

    "If you don't know that you are in the matrix, how do you wake up from the matrix?" There is no awakening, only infinite reflection. We more or less perceive ourselves in the app algorithm that is constantly being tracked, but rarely question deeply. This has a subtle influence on our behavior and...

    Why become a social animal

    The original intention of the birth of the Internet is to create a better world. It is the nature of capital to pursue profit, and there is a lack of relevant legal norms. The wild development along the way has become a caged bird unconsciously. The inherent contradiction of capitalism, capitalism...

    After reading it, I was very shocked. The short comment was too long, so I can only send it to the long comment here~

    Although I know that social media is selling people's attention, I have never understood the business operation model behind it, nor how technologies such as algorithmic recommendation affect and manipulate our consciousness/concept;

    I really shuddered to watch the whole film in many places. I...

    I'm sorry, we don't have an appointment

    "The Great Hack" focuses on digging deeply into FB's participation in political election events and talks about data right. The ethical problem in this film's description of the business model is more comprehensive and detailed, and the golden sentences are frequent. After watching it, there will...

    The inescapable mobile phone addiction

    Facebook programmers go to work during the day to build models to make users addicted to their software, and then pick up their phones after get off work at night and become addicted themselves.

    I want to quit social media, but I use my electronic device to watch movies that educate me to get rid of...

    The number of words exceeds the number to add here

    It's absurd that I'm watching this documentary watching how the masses (including myself) are being manipulated by tech giants while reading marketing books to learn how to use consumer psychology and the media to gain profits for the company to manipulate more people. Commercial interests and...

    Anxiety, Vision, Alignment, Action

    A very meaningful documentary. The most impressive thing is that technology does bring us a lot of convenience, but is it really necessary to evolve to social recognition every five minutes? I think I was addicted to QQ for a while at the beginning, and I would post several stories a day, all of...

    I didn't expect it to be so serious

    The reason for watching the movie: I saw a recommendation in the main mirror of up before, but I have never watched it. Picked it up this time.

    Summary: empathy, surprise

    In fact, there are many such parents around, who see their children not studying well, playing games, TikTok, and Kuaishou all day...

    Something we have to face

    The problem is presented in the time of a film.

    At the beginning, I even questioned whether the research I did was eventually reduced to a tool for capitalists. But I think, at least I'm always using this knowledge to make the world a better place. In addition, AI cannot lead to the regression of...
