What Big Tech Doesn't Want You to Know About Your Data, Your Privacy, and Your Future

by David Jones ...

I remember the exact moment the illusion shattered. I was sitting in a conference room watching a product manager present a feature that would increase user engagement by 12%. The room applauded. I felt sick. Everyone in that room understood what the feature would do, even if no one said it out loud. It would keep people scrolling longer, clicking more, and giving us more data.
