  • I actually think that Google News tailoring my news page to what it thinks I want to see is *not* in my best interest. It keeps giving me news that I *want* to see - which is nice in a way.

    But isn’t part of the point of being ‘informed’ being informed about a wide range of things? And not necessarily things that just confirm what you believe about the world?

    I’m concerned we are becoming more and more insular and less open-minded, and, as a result, less informed because of these things.

    I want to change it, but all my news sites cater to my interests! I’m trapped!
