Anyone who says voting is a waste of time needs to watch this film.
If the paranoia level could probably withstand a slight reduction, much of the movie feels utterly credible.

There are many reasons why you might need a hacker, and one of them is; if you have ever thought your partner was cheating on you even when they were not, you are not alone. The only genuine and reliable hacker I have come across is hackerone975 @ gm ail co m This is because for many months now I have been looking for a way to check my husband's WhatsApp, iMessage, Emails, Facebook messages and all details about his phone. Hackerone975 just sent me a spy program to use on my PC to gain access. I logged in and gained access into their servers to check messages. This is super easy to use and a smooth interface which is a friendly option, I'm currently watching messages pop up from his phone in real-time and also deleted messages. You can Message Hackerone975 via at hackerone975 @ gm ail com This is why you need a hacker like hackerone975 service, he is a professional hacker who can provide you with any hacking services that you need.

If I was told a story about accessing a mobile phone that isn't in the same country as you're I'll call it fiction. Definitely it sounds impossible until you see it happen, remotespywise @ gm ail com were the platform recommended to me for access into a mobile phone. When I first contacted I was scared to proceed because their services were a bit pricy which they worked with my budget, my desperation made go ahead with it and i definitely didn't regret it because I didn't lose anything, I got the information I needed and it was so smooth, they carried it out exactly as they said they'll and I'm so happy to have chosen them because they are exceptionally good

The Great Hack will be catnip for data wonks and mathematicians, but I sense its desired purpose is to be a cautionary tale for the general viewer. I think it’s a tad too long and a bit too wishy-washy when it should be angrier, but I was fascinated by it for a very specific personal reason.
The Great Hack uses a decent rehash of the Cambridge Analytica scandal as the starting point for an interesting two-pronged character study, an instigation for provocative ideas about data crime and what is ultimately a really, really, really conflicted look at when it's terrifying having corporations learning things about our online habits and when it's cool.
The Great Hack isn’t revealing much that hasn’t been reported elsewhere, but it’s powerful in the ways it does so.
These are interesting and fraught times that deserve an unflinching look at the perils of data rights and online privacy, but The Great Hack is a reminder that documentaries are not always journalism.
It seems so invested in a rehabilitation of Brittany Kaiser’s image that the filmmakers’ own motives end up being its most interesting subject.
Thanks so much to Hackerone975 for helping me hack into my husband phone so i could see what he is up to and i was able to catch him red handed, now i am out and a lot happier credit goes to earlier mention hacker for a good job. If you are also interested in any hack job you can contact him via his mail – hackerone975 @ gmail com
Report
I though this documentary was good until the middle of it. Then it kind of dragged a lot around the girl, while not leaving place to the real events. I was particularly interested in the Brexit aspect of it. But the film fails to explain the circumstance around the Brexit and at least one election that were served by Cambridge Analytica. I give it 60% because it was still making some valid points about social media data.
Report
A documentary about Cambridge Analytica and how they sort of manipulated consumer data to get Trump elected. Although its well meaning, its also very heavy handed and seems to imply that people were duped, and that CA used some sort of brainwashing techniques to win. This is of course not true. While CA may have done some underhanded tactics, in the end it was the people who willingly voted for who they wanted, so it was simply a form of persuasion, which is kinda normal for ad companies.
Report
An unsatisfactory treatment of an alarming threat to democracy everywhere. The threat posed by Facebook, and big data deserves much more than this treatment. The film raises important questions, but would have been a great deal better with a journalist narrator, who doesn’t take sides. The production values, music and the characters who are portrayed are all annoying. The film is one-sided and a true disappointment.
