@SamanthaSobo I think it is one of those things that they could have thought about but didn't really expect to occur and many of them were young and naïve at the beginning, and now they are making too much money to give a hoot #eme4390m2021

@BenCampanella I think it was bizarre how the young girl smashed to cookie jar to retrieve her phone because she could hear the notifications. I feel like this isn't farfetched and it makes me sad for this generation and future ones #eme4390s2021

@JacobLerner10 This was unnerving to me. It is a manifestation of the psychological issues that have arisen from social media. I know I've struggled to feel pretty w/o the filters and just how common it is for people to post with filters. I find it particularly damaging to kids. #eme4390s2021

@PaytonCanderson I had seen this documentary before but it gave me the same chills the second time around. Especially the part about the product and how it is the only other industry besides drugs to call clients users #eme4390s2021

@YasminWalton I know had a large issue with this and I realized that consistently having a feed full of celebrities or brands or even people I knew was causing me problems with constantly comparing myself or wishing I had what they did #eme4390s2021

I want privacy from the tech companies and to ensure the best for my mental health and I think the key is unplugging from social media #eme4390m2021 #socialdilemma

It's very interesting in @SocialDilemma_ when asked what they thought the problem was it was hard for them to identify from the long list we've learned this semester from data mining to privacy issues to psychological effects #eme4390s2021#socialdilemma

I no longer what my information mined for some countless hours of momentary gratification. I want to ensure the decisions I make our my own and not some influenced my an algorithm through Instagram. #eme4390m2021

[Beatriz Sanchez Uribazo @BeatrizUribazo]

but it has turned into something more scary, more invasive, and a lot of tech companies are working in unethical ways and it is important to hold them accountable and inform the public #eme4390s2021 #socialdilemma

[Beatriz Sanchez Uribazo @BeatrizUribazo]

I think most of the computer engineers and coders have many of the same feelings as we do especially the more I have learned through this class: the internet and especially in the beginning is an amazing tool that has opened the door for a lot of innovation...

My overall takeaway from my 24hrs unplugged is that I'm missing the world and time is passing me by due to the little screen in my hand #eme4390m2021

[Beatriz Sanchez Uribazo @BeatrizUribazo]

Turning off for 24 hrs felt good, I felt less anxious #eme4390m2021

Did anyone else sleep in really late without being able to use an alarm ? #eme4390m2021

@CMAquarium The Clearwater Marine Aquarium is a great spot to bring your kids, great education about marine wildlife #floridamarinelife #USFDigitalIdentity #eme4390m2021
