This video definetly shed light on a topic I was very unaware of that was occurring so commonly amongst everything. It does make you think there are many pieces of information we are missing out on because of these “filter bubbles”. I recall a time when I and my friend searched something up and we got two completely different results so this does explain why that occurred. I’ve also realized that I’m definitely trapped in this “filter bubble” scene since my youtube recommendation page is only what I searched previously or anything related to those topics. There was this other time when I tried to find evidence for an essay I was composing, but all the “resources” were known websites that I always go to but weren’t what I was looking for. These filter bubbles definitely are restraining people or “gatekeeping” from the knowledge they should be shown. Typically these” filter bubbles” show what they think you would like compared to what you should know.
