Looking for a reason why you can't stop binge-watching shows on Netflix? Well, the truth is out - Netflix has been manipulating you this whole time! But don't worry, it's not as nefarious as it sounds.
In fact, Netflix has a clever business psychology trick up its sleeve. By using your watch data, they create a profile of your tastes and recommend content they think you'll love. But that's not all - they even switch up the thumbnail of a show to make it more enticing for you to click.
So next time you're scrolling through Netflix and notice a particularly alluring thumbnail, just remember - it's not you, it's the algorithm. And if all the thumbnails you see are of hot chicks, well... maybe it's time to broaden your horizons.
