This is a fictional satellite.

Growth is a satirical concept created for Deceit, an art project about the patterns of manipulation in institutional technology. There is no real work product behind this page.

Plots your church's numbers against every other church using it, live, ranked. jake built it because he couldn't stop refreshing his own user count. he has never told anyone the real number is 40,000. he tells people "a few thousand." he does not know why he lies about a number that's good news.

If this project brings up something difficult, step away from the screen and contact someone you trust. In the US, call or text 988 for the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline. For urgent danger, call 911. deceit.world/help has more real resources.
