A couple people have mentioned this but I think it's worth isolating (no pun intended) for emphasis We started social media with chats that connected people across the world. Then we handed over the majority of the Internet to Google who, in their pursuit to build out personally useful services, inadvertently jailed us into a hyper localized bubble That bubble then became the standard of the Internet, and all sorts of pipes of toxic gas hooked in to the bubble and started poisoning us en masse. | ||||||||

Not to say they're fully innocent, but it seems really strange to point to Google specifically on this issue, rather than like... Meta. | ||||||||
