Social media, cyberbullying, hikikomori, FOMO, but also happiness, awareness, realisation. Through 35 stories of famous experiments, readers reflect on what happens when you are online... and beyond.

For example, according to a 2020 study conducted by Kaspersky, an antivirus company, in collaboration with the Giffoni Innovation Department, at least 6 out of 10 young people have encountered fake profiles online. Moreover, 44% of participants (almost half of the sample studied!) admit to having created and used fake profiles on social media at least once.

Why do they do this?
- 27% for fun.
- 14% to comment and post content freely.
- 8% out of shyness.
- 5% to like and comment on their “real” profile.
- 2% to insult others without being caught.

Analysing past and recent experiments is the first step to reflect on what happens in our everyday lives: why someone may give us a bad impression, why we feel part of a group, what leads us to isolate or trust someone.
This book invites readers not to stop at appearances, but to always look for answers regarding our own behaviour and
that of the people around us.
