      2016 was a close election where filter bubbles & algorithmic funneling was weaponized for spreading misinformation. http://www.niemanlab.org/2016/11/the-forces-that-drove-this-elections-media-failure-are-likely-to-get-worse/ …pic.twitter.com/cbgrj1TqFb

      Had many threads last year, but keep coming back to this one from last April. This. is. not. a. historical. anomaly. https://twitter.com/zeynep/status/725378841091428352 …pic.twitter.com/GUF3gHnw1Z

      Look, this isn't just making things visible. The more you see things, the more they are reinforced. This mattered. https://twitter.com/SuePGardner/status/796441937918115840 …

      FB algorithms have clear bents: filter-bubble, clicky or quarrelsome content. Yes, it builds on human tendencies. It greatly amplifies them.

      Twitter's own (lack of) policies about harassment & extreme racism also played a role in all this. It's all complex, but this is part of it.

      I don’t get why so many of us reiterate that it was a problem before. It’s like we’re getting preachy at people for finally agreeing

      Partly frustration? My first NYT oped was about data mining and profiling; used Obama campaign as example. Got a lot of pushback

          there’s still a huge denial based on assumptions that a Trump administration would follow the rule of law. Americans are weird
