The Filter Bubble : What The Internet Is Hiding From You, Paperback / softback Book

The Filter Bubble : What The Internet Is Hiding From You Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Imagine a world where all the news you see is defined by your salary, where you live, and who your friends are.

Imagine a world where you never discover new ideas. And where you can't have secrets. Welcome to 2011. Google and Facebook are already feeding you what they think you want to see.

Advertisers are following your every click. Your computer monitor is becoming a one-way mirror, reflecting your interests and reinforcing your prejudices. The internet is no longer a free, independent space.

It is commercially controlled and ever more personalised.

The Filter Bubble reveals how this hidden web is starting to control our lives - and shows what we can do about it.
