    • Trivia
      In September 2020, as part of an investigation into US voter dissuasion tactics employed by the Donald Trump campaign during the 2016 US Presidential Elections, journalist Krishnan Guru-Murthy from Channel 4 News (1982) in the UK finally presented David Carroll with Carroll's own personal data file. Carroll previously was unable to obtain his own data file, before, during, or after filming the documentary up until this point, despite suing British data consultancy company Cambridge Analytica for it, before it ceased trading.
    • Quotes

      Herself - Former Director of Business Development for Cambridge Analytica: [in front of committee of inquiry] I have been offered introductions to clients that I refused to meet with before, such as the Alternative for Germany and Marine Le Pen's campaign. I refused to even get on the phone call with them.

    Wasted opportunity by picking left wing rhetoric
    What's wrong is wrong. It's not right if the enemy or our allies do it. It's wrong.

    This topic is extremely important. But conveniently avoids mentioning the counter-part of this, the big tech companies based in California have a huge left-leaning bias. Both things are bad.

    It's such a shame. Also the storytelling is terrible and boring. This deserved better treatment than a partisan Netflix documentary.
