The Great Hack

The Cambridge Analytica/Facebook scandal was one of the defining issues of the past several years, and this Netflix documentary dives into the terrifying details. It's a scathing look at how social media and targeted ads played a role in manipulating individuals, exposing data, and influencing major events for the clients who paid for that data, most notably in the 2016 presidential election and the Brexit campaign. The movie follows several key players to explore how, exactly, the data breaches happened, what they were used for, and how Facebook itself became complicit in the massive scandal. It's a deep, sometimes downright horrifying look at one of the biggest tech scandals of our time.
