Über diesen Titel

In this urgent solo episode, Darin breaks down what may be the most dangerous fatal convenience of our time: the digital algorithms quietly hijacking our attention, biology, and sovereignty. Billions of dollars are being spent to keep you scrolling by triggering fear, shame, comparison, and low-grade stress, and the cost is your presence, peace, and power. Drawing from neuroscience, public health data, indigenous wisdom, and lived experience, Darin exposes how the modern digital environment is engineered to extract from us, and why reclaiming your attention is one of the most powerful acts of self-protection available today. This episode is a call to stop outsourcing your life to algorithms, and start consciously designing your own.
