'Having a so-called “ledger” of user data capable of self-analyzation with an agenda of behavior manipulation is not a big stretch. '
'The nine-minute video examines the possibilities of using Big Data to guide users into conforming to a predetermined agenda. '
'According to a short film uncovered by The Verge called “The Selfish Ledger,” Google had been thinking about using “total data collection” and social engineering to modify the behavior of entire populations. '
'But what if there was an ulterior motive to Big Tech’s data collection — something that did not involve improving our experience or making money?'
'The film was made in 2016 by Google X (now just X) head of design Nick Foster and fellow researcher David Murphy for internal use at Google. '
