The Netflix film The Social Dilemma was an interesting mixture of documentary and fiction. It allowed me to engage in self-reflection about my own social media use and how much those practices control my daily life. This captivating piece explores our growing dependence on social media and how the usage of these platforms has expanded beyond their original goal. I have always analyzed the effects and dangers of social media from a personal perspective, in terms of how much damage it can cause to people as well as their mental and physical health. However, this film allowed me to portray these issues from a broader point of view, focusing especially on the companies, the creators, and masterminds behind such platforms. With time, big companies have continued to throw ethics out the window to expand their profits. Platforms like Instagram or Facebook have become much more than a form of communication and, as it was revealed in the film, have become monitors of our daily lives. It was very interesting and somehow ironic to see the tech creators denouncing their own creations and becoming self-aware of the damage behind this growing industry.
