"Big Brother isn't watching. He's singing and dancing.
He's pulling rabbits out of a hat. Big Brother’s busy holding
your attention every moment you're awake. He's making sure you're
always distracted. He's making sure you're fully absorbed. He's
making sure your imagination withers. Until it's as useful as
your appendix." — Chuck Palahniuk
Tristan Harris (@tristanharris) was named by
Rolling Stone as one of the "25 People Shaping the World." He was
featured in Fortune's 2018 "40 under 40" list for his work on
reforming technology, and the Atlantic has called him the
"closest thing Silicon Valley has to a conscience."
Formerly Design Ethicist at Google, he is a world-renowned expert
on how technology steers our decisions. Tristan has spent nearly
his entire life studying subtle psychological forces, from early
beginnings as a childhood magician, to working with the Stanford
Persuasive Technology Lab, and to his role as CEO of Apture,
which was acquired by Google.
Tristan has briefed heads of state, technology company CEOs, and
members of the US Congress about the attention economy, and he's
been featured in media worldwide, including 60 Minutes, PBS News
Hour, and many more. He is the co-founder of the Center for
Humane Technology, which can be found at Humanetech.com, and
cohost (with Aza Raskin) of Your Undivided Attention podcast,
which exposes the hidden designs that have the power to hijack
our attention, manipulate our choices, and destabilize our real
world communities.
