Synopsis

This essay explores how we can connect in the age of social media. We now structure our lives to gain approval and are used to being watched. But for many young people, this is changing. Economic policies have fostered intense competition, while the environment suffers. As Facebook's true intentions become clear, people are abandoning the platform, often facing social isolation as a result. The essay opens with powerful images: melted smartphones and a destroyed neighborhood in Aleppo, symbolizing the destructive power of technology. It argues that we must break free from social media's grip, questioning who is responsible for our well-being. Academics Alex Williams (University of East Anglia) and Nick Srnicek (King's College London) examine this vital question and other related issues.
