You're Being Manipulated. Here's How to Fight Back.

About this episode

Manipulation is everywhere: in ads, algorithms, politics, even workplace incentives. In the new book Manipulation: What It Is, Why It’s Bad, and What to Do About It by Harvard Law professor Cass Sunstein—one of the most cited legal scholars in the world—you’ll learn how subtle design choices and social pressures can hijack your autonomy, plus practical steps to spot and resist them in your feeds, at the store, and on the job. 📱 Follow The Next Big Idea Daily on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen 📩 Want more bite-sized insights from the best new nonfiction delivered straight to your inbox?
