Summary
In July 2014, Facebook ran a social experiment on emotional contagion2 by monitoring the emotional responses of 689,003 users to the omission of certain content containing positive and negative words. The project was severely criticized3 for manipulating emotions without the informed consent of the subjects, and raised concerns for users’ privacy. Most importantly, it brought about the question of respect toward the user’s autonomy in the era of automation.
