Netflix Doc ‘The Social Dilemma’: The Doom And Gloom Of Big Tech

Netflix Documentary The Social Dilemma about the doom and gloom of Big Tech, was on my watchlist. On 9 September 2020, the film was finally available on Netflix, and clear to me is that director Jeff Orlowski will make his impact on humanity again.

Opinions on Orlowski’s recent docu might differ. But the filmmaker certainly has a purpose or True North Star. In his 2012 film Chasing Ice, he captured the devastating effects of climate change on melting glaciers. In 2017, Orlowski launched Chasing Coral about the erosion of our coral reefs.

His latest film, The Social Dilemma, takes aim at the hidden dangers of social media and Big Tech.

Don’t worry. I hate spoilers. So I won’t reveal a lot. The docu starts in the dark underbelly of Silicon Valley almost a decade ago. We see the upcoming social media giants, social networks, and Big Tech players.
