    Decided to watch this after the excellent 'The Social Dilemma', but was left overwhelmingly bored at times. Some interesting parts, but way too drawn out with very little keep any of our attention.

    Nice documentary. It shows an accurate radiography of what happens inside the Big-Tech companies and the business with our data.

    A really interesting documentary about the way that social media and advertising were used in the 2016 presidential election. It doesn't completely get to the bottom of it (and I wish it had more detailed information about what exactly Cambridge Analytica was up to) but nevertheless a very informative documentary about the way we live now. I especially appreciated the emotionally revealing confessions of Brittany Kaiser, a social media executive who got her start working for Obama and ended up with the Trump campaign. The brief story she tells about her family getting swept out of their home by the global financial crisis and the disparate pay on offer from her from Democrats and Republicans says a lot and really gets to the heart of the matter both in her life, and in our politics.

    Sad that important documentaries like this and "The Social Dilemma" don't get as many viewings as blockbusters, as these documentaries are showing how "free" social media sites are manipulating adults AND kids.

    So real, so intense and also a great warning to us now and to the future, this documentary illustrates very well our problem with data in the web world. It is didatic and urgent, everyone should see it to create critical thoughts and understands the importance of data rights as human rights too.

    A good explanation on a very important subject, aided by good production and editing.

    More education. I was, of course, aware of the scandal as it was revealed. This look behind the curtain was interesting, though horrifying in the realization of what it means moving forward – that bad genie is out of the bottle.

    This documentary focuses on the political aspects of big data exploitation and I'm pleased to see it being discussed, but I do have my concerns about how it's received when it balances polarization, in a sense that it puts in exact opposites movements like BLM and Blue Lives Matter. I know it wasn't the point and it was just an example, but 15 seconds would've sufficed for this issue not to exist. Other than that, it's a very well-made documentary, educational and accessible.
