    You don’t need to believe the hype about “psychographic profiling” to worry that data-obsessed political marketing is undermining democracy.http://nyer.cm/2i37Awu

        But apparently it's effective. So, could it be used to influence positive behaviors and interactions?

        Its not surveillance, its “social media”.

        C'mon. EVERY Hillary-joyous thread got some idiot ugly troll "Hillary is calculating" or some drek & I'd just go "Ugh" and leave the conversation. This endless junk really was/is poisonous. (Unless Group was closed, trolls 100% ubiquitous & dispiriting.)

        Data has always been vital to marketing to target customers effectively, but finding & exploiting fears and vulnerabilities is sick and wrong... and sadly, effective. Hopefully, inspiration will be a welcome commodity and there will be worthy candidates willing to go there 11/18

        look on the bright side this stuff like subliminal only works to sell people things original studies by James Vicary showed it did not work in more emotive areas like political affiliations. The profiling of people works in similar fashion. Still, the fact they tried was telling.

        That is true but the belief this approach actually alters people voting is dangerous not because it worked but because they tried it. Brexit and Trump are horrors we have to acknowledge as real results sadly. if it wakes people up to the effect of there actions...

        They believe they do which is enough for such enterprises. I am not saying they should not be held to account and made to answer for there actions. Maybe elections could be rerun. Just sounding a note of caution.

        It’s not hype: SCL got government funding to manipulate US agenda in other countries. It’s psyops.

        Why was this genius in 2012 but nefarious in 2016? It seems media is actually upset about the outcome of the 2016 election not so much that data mining happened. Why was Obama data mining genius but Trumps nefarious? Double standards and media bias is strong at the New Yorker
