The documentary examines the effect that a handful of companies, including but not limited to Google, Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter have over the public. It goes into depth on how social media’s design is meant to nurture an addiction, manipulate its use in politics, and spread conspiracy theories such as Pizzagate and aiding groups such as flat-earthers. The final point of the film touches on fake news Tristan Harris refers to it as a \”disinformation-for-profit business model and that companies make more money by allowing anyone to reach out to anyone for messages to be delivered to their inboxes and on their mobile devices.
