💡 The Reality of Social Media: Profit Over People 💡| Mark Stross : Tech Visionary & Author

Social media platforms are expertly designed to keep you hooked. With thousands of programmers dedicated to one goal — holding your attention — they build systems that keep you scrolling, feeding you content tailored to your biases, not reality.

Think about it: these algorithms learn from every click, every view, slowly building a world that reflects only your perspective. It’s easy to get trapped in this echo chamber, believing what you see as the whole truth. But it’s not! It’s curated, filtered, and meant to keep you engaged — not informed.

As parents, how do we compete against that? We need awareness, discussion, and to actively teach our kids (and ourselves!) to challenge what we see online.
