Do you not know that to whom you present yourselves slaves to obey, you are that one’s slaves whom you obey, whether of sin leading to death, or of obedience leading to righteousness? Romans 6:16

The one who controls the information is the one who is in control.

That has become axiomatic in our new age of Big Tech Internet. Companies like Facebook, Google, YouTube, and Twitter are not only some of the largest companies in history but also the most influential. They influence what people think about and what they should think about it!

What’s more, these companies know how to keep you connected to their platforms through notifying you of content they know will engage you. They know you through your behavior online and the more time you spend with them, the more opportunity they have to make money and to influence you. If you don’t “comply” with their “standards”, they will just turn off your voice online.

Netflix produced a documentary this year on the immense power of Big Tech called The Social Dilemma, where executives of these companies and experts in the tech industry pull back the curtain on just how influential and addictive their platforms are.

This weekend on The Christian Worldview, we’ll examine Big Tech Internet and how the future is and will be shaped by their humanistic worldview. And we’ll discuss how Christians can navigate the Internet realm.
