The trailer features some of the whistleblowers who have worked at the biggest social media platforms, thus adding credibility to the documentary’s narrative.
The documentary narrative? It’s not the trolls who are the ultimate villains on social networks, it’s these platforms themselves who enable such behavior and have overpowered our brains and thinking patterns in the last decade.

In addition, they reinforce the ideas that they want us to believe in by showing only a part of the picture on our news feeds.
