Repost, but worth it.
This is what the “Luddite” attitude to technology actually is. It’s also important to remember that “recommendation” models are also a problem, it’s not just the slop generators that need to go.

Not sure if a troll account for stupidity ragebait, but obviously a radio broadcast to all users that “Acme Diapers are Great” is a fucking huge difference to knowing that you, personally, have just had a kid and so now will ONLY see and marketed Acme childcare products. That’s different, right? Kinda targets and excludes you from mass exposure to alternatives? Kinda puts you in a little focused bubble right?
Now extrapolate to political and socio economics.
THAT IS NOT WHAT THE VIDEO IS ABOUT.
The video is about how people passively consume media instead of search for answers themselves.
Sorry, I was just responding to your claim radio broadcast is the same thing as algorithmically targetted advertising. Like a fuckin idiot.
