This is at the very least, eyebrow raising. Should these major players on the Internet be adjusting our searches under the guise of personalizing our experience. On the surface, this seems perfectly innocent. Though, should the filter bubble be utilized to affect what we're able to see and hear based on our queries and/or searches on the Internet through Google, Yahoo, and the like. I'll admit that I don't know a lot about all of this. The questions come to mind though. Are we not capable of conducting our own searches and go where we want to go without intervention? The thought that this is all about the money seems to be more and more the flavor of the day. I mean, I and others pretty much always knew this but it's getting so saturated into our psyches that we start to see nothing wrong with it all. Everything is balance and we need the tool that is the Internet to have that same balance. Please leave comments.
