Today I’m joined by Dr. Robert Epstein, a Harvard PhD behavioral scientist and the Editor-in-Chief of Psychology Today. We dig into his alarming research on how tech giants like Google manipulate our thoughts, beliefs, and even voting preferences. Dr. Epstein shares his extraordinary findings from over 11 years of study, revealing how search engines are being used as powerful mind control devices. We also discuss the personal risks he has faced due to his work, as well as his ongoing efforts to build a large-scale monitoring system to track these manipulations. This episode is a must-watch for anyone concerned about the impact of big tech on democracy and the future of free thought.
