Sentence example: Those who’ve been raising alarms about Facebook are right: Almost every minute that we spend on our smartphones and tablets and laptops, thumbing through favourite websites and scrolling through personalised feeds, we’re pointed toward foregone conclusions.

  1. Fore = beforehand; in advance

  2. Foregone conclusion = a conclusion that is fixed in advance
