Zeynep Tufekci: Our attention has been stolen

It’s bad enough when companies you trust sell your data for profit, but there is something worse on the horizon. Addictive technology is on the march – from poker machines to smartphones. And it is stealing something even more valuable – our attention – in order to sell it to the highest bidder. Is it too late to get it back? Chaired by Ann Mossop, FODI Co-curator and UNSW Centre for Ideas Director. This talk is part of the UNSW Grand Challenge on Living with 21st Century Technology, and was recorded live on stage as part of the Festival of Dangerous Ideas 2018
