Overview
The work applied the Incorruptible 4 diagnostic lenses to evaluate how prominent consumer brands generated distrust and the so-called "Ick Factor." The project compared brand behaviors across the four lenses and documented specific integrity failures and their manifestations in two case studies.
What I've accomplished
I audited Twitter using the Incorruptible 4 lenses and produced a visual 6/10 scorecard that diagnosed governance weaknesses and other integrity failures.
Project breakdown
I picked Twitter as the patient, audited it with the Incorruptible 4-lens framework, and produced a visual scorecard diagnosing governance and other lens failures. The submission produced a 6/10 scorecard image showing the findings.
