NSA mentioned. GCHQ mentioned. Useless press mentioned. A whistleblower who isn't Edward Snowden, mentioned. But no CIA?? Give me a break. The whole story isn't complete if the CIA isn't included. Makes me wonder if the CIA was behind the camera.

It's well written and has that cold war feel, which is great for a spy film. Watch for pleasure, but it's not necessarily the full story.

I was enjoying this show, overlooking all the categories and labels being placed on the characters because the drama was good. It took me a while to figure out the MC who always seemed to be crying or yelling about something, or throwing herself to the ground. But in Seasons 5 and even more so in 6, the MC threw herself to the ground a few too many times a d wailed at pillows yet somehow managed to look good the next day, ready for court. Then, in season 6 they really piled on the cases the students fought and won. The stereotyping got over the top, to the point where the white people were just so cardboard cutouts it was getting sick. Can't these writers just write a good story without all the underlying preaching!? It died for me with all that.

I don't even know why a documentary like this was made in the way it is. They are looking at the 2016 election, as though it was some conspiracy for the Trump Campaign to buys ads on Facebook. Obama was buying ads on Facebook in 2008! That's why I say this documentary is wayyyyy behind.

Trump's win is the only thing that got this researcher to wake up, and instead of looking into how far back social media is used by politicians in general, he just focuses on the 2016 election. Talk about bias - which doesn't say a whole lot about it being a balanced documentary.

It's not worth watching. Save your money for a far more deserving documentary that will look into how social media is being controlled by a whole lot of power merchants, and how Google is the worst of the Tech firms at spying and gathering data.
