... just another fuss that will blow over in time? Perhaps, although users of social services often come to accept many things that might not be good for them. Even the former CTO of Facebook, Adam D’Angelo, acknowledges that there are problems with a filtered feed...It can serve to reinforce the “filter bubble” that human beings naturally form around themselves, and that can affect the way they see the world and thus the way they behave in that world...
By definition, algorithmic filtering means that you are not the one who is choosing what to see and not see. A program written by someone else is doing that... it comes with biases and risks, and we shouldn’t downplay them.
