Honestly sounds extremely dystopian. Thankfully I dropped social media a long time ago, but imagining some company creating a digital version of me and my friends so they can create hyper-focused advertisements to manipulate me into engaging with something is beyond gross.

Very sorry that it came across that way for you! We built Societies in the hope that the better people can understand each other, the better we can innovate solutions that meet people’s wants and needs - much of bad policymaking and bad product designs came from not being able to foresee the unintended consequences, and we hope that one day we can help flag those risks in an artificial society first, before taking the bet that could impact real people in real life :)

I am not going to enumerate all the ways this can be abused, but what controls do you have in place?

Every website you visit, every purchase you make online, every time you open safari on mobile, chrome on android, you’re being tracked. You don’t have to have social media anymore for a persona to be built for you.

yes, that is even more dystopian. If America was run by non blood sucking vampires (both parties) we would start heavily taxing and incentivizing outcomes now before society completely collapses.
