The final statement

The final statement that we selected is "The less information you have, the more accurate your decision is". 

We are pointing on the 'information overload', that can be caused by too much information and further troubles with choosing the relevant and useful. With the invention of the internet and mobile computing, the amount of information a human person is exposed to has never been greater. Every day we are faced with the need to keep up with our email and to stay updated on news from all around the world. Furthermore, gathering information on any topic is as easy as entering some keywords in a search engine. If there is any truth in the saying ‘knowledge is power’, mankind has never been more powerful. However, not everyone has this optimistic view on this astronomical amount of information. Recent studies indicate that when the amount of information a person is exposed to increases, the quality of his decision can be severely decreased due to the limitation of human capability for processing information. This phenomenon is often described as ‘information overload’.
