event details

On Monday October 7, the Committee of Intellectual Activities will organize her first SIB Cinema of the year. That means that we will show you an amazing and inspiring documentary with drinks and snacks included!

The documentary SIB is going to show is ‘The Great Hack’ (https://youtu.be/iX8GxLP1FHo). In 2015, Cambridge Analytica, a UK-based political consulting firm, began working on behalf of Ted Cruz’s campaign to win the 2016 Republican nomination. It used Facebook as a means for “political-voter surveillance” through the collection of user data points. After Cruz dropped out of the race, Cambridge Analytica used the same strategies to aid Donald Trump’s 2016 US presidential bid. Independent investigations into data mining, along with whistle-blower accounts of the firm’s impact on Brexit, led to a scandal over the influence of social media in political elections.
In this documentary, the Cambridge Analytica scandal is examined through the eyes of several involved persons.

Signing up is not necessary and you do not need to be a member. Walk in starts at 19.30, we will start the documentary at 20.00. Please be on time, so you won’t disturb others.
