Journalist Carole Cadwalladr’s riveting TED Talk
How Facebook Ads. Influenced the youngsters voting behavior in the Wales, UK.?
In an unmissable talk, journalist Carole Cadwalladr digs into one of the most perplexing events in recent times: the UK's super-close 2016 vote to leave the European Union. Tracking the result to a barrage of misleading Facebook ads targeted at vulnerable Brexit swing voters -- and linking the same players and tactics to the 2016 US presidential election -- Cadwalladr calls out the "gods of Silicon Valley" for being on the wrong side of history and asks: Are free and fair elections a thing of the past?
Quoting several ‘facts,’ she unmasks the Facebook. When the big monolithic corporations choose to stay with the wrong side of the history what we going to do about it. She asks us candidly. This is highly recommended ‘Ted Talk.’
