Antisocial Media: How Facebook Disconnects Us and Undermines DemocracyIf you wanted to build a machine that would distribute propaganda to millions of people, distract them from important issues, energize hatred and bigotry, erode social trust, undermine respectable journalism, foster doubts about science, and engage in massive surveillance all at once, you would make something a lot like Facebook. Of course, none of that was part of the plan. In this fully updated paperback edition of Antisocial Media, Siva

If you wanted to build a machine that would distribute propaganda to millions of people, distract them from important issues, energize hatred and bigotry, erode social trust, undermine respectable journalism, foster doubts about science, and engage in massive surveillance all at once, you would make something a lot like Facebook. Of course, none of that was part of the plan. In this fully updated paperback edition of Antisocial Media, Siva Vaidhyanathan explains how Facebook devolved from an innocent social site hacked together by Harvard students into a force that, while it may make personal life just a little more pleasurable, makes democracy a lot more challenging. It's an account of the hubris of good intentions, a missionary spirit, and an ideology that sees computer code as the universal solvent for all human problems. And it's an indictment of how "social media" has fostered the deterioration of democratic culture around the world, from facilitating Russian meddling in support of Trump's election to the exploitation of the platform by murderous authoritarians in Burma and the Philippines. Both authoritative and trenchant, Antisocial Media shows how Facebook's mission went so wrong.

Gently enough for sensitive skin
I love this cleanser. I have purchased this multiple times. I have sensitive combination skin and it works great for me. It exfoliates gently with out irritating my skin and feels like a spa quality product. Will continue to purchase

Best Skin cleanser
Best ever. Deep cleans pore and I can see makeup melting off the face once you wash with this. Post results: Super clean soft skin, my face shines. Been using only for 2 weeks now, so cannot comment on Pore size reduction. Extra sensitive eczema skin approved.

Nice products with positive results
I bought Anua toner, trio, and moisturizer. I am in love with these products. They clean your skin really well without leaving residue. They moisturize without leaving your skin oily, and after less than a week of use, I'm already seeing improvement in my skin texture. It really is a good value for the price and how much you use each time. All of this with no irritation.

Great for sensitive skin!
Most azelaic acid serum make my skin feel prickly or even a slight burning sensation so I was glad to find this, which has a lower percentage of azelaic acid but also combines CICA. This product does not irritate my sensitive skin and I still get some calming benefits. I use it in place of a toner after washing my face and before other products. It does seem to help calm my rosacea. Note that this is more soothing than moisturizing so you may still want some sort of barrier cream to use over it at night. It works great under my sunscreen during the day.
