CHALLENGE
Worldwide, the average person spends a total of 6 hours and 55 minutes looking at a screen each day. Afterwards they have little to no clue of what they looked at. Social media platforms TikTok, Facebook and Instagram are using algorithms that customises the feed based on small movements such as how long you hover over a clip. If you linger on disruptive content you will see more and more of it, because the algorithm thinks you like it. This is a huge problem that have given rise to starvation algorithms, depression and anxiety among users. Can we stop this issue from snowballing into an even bigger crisis?
