They're simple actionable steps anyone can do to keep our devices from ruling our and our children's lives,  ABC NEWS: "Tristan Harris, a former Google executive who plays a leading role in the film, said he hopes “The Social Dilemma" can wake up society the way Ralph Nader's book “Unsafe At Any Speed" spurred the introduction of seat-belt laws and Al Gore's award-winning 2006 documentary “An Inconvenient Truth" sharpened focus on the climate changes caused by human-generated greenhouse gases. “What I am really hoping is this film will be the first time we have a shared truth, a shared reality about the breakdown of our shared reality," Harris told The Associated Press in an interview.""
