Just the obvious: all the social media feeds you see are heavily moderated and shaped to ignite actions that are beneficial to advertisers/the platform. Comments, posts are removed without notice (except maybe the poster). Major search engines filter according to police warrants, media corp inquiries, "privacy rights" (eg. EU's "right to disappear" law).
As separated cases they don't seem like much - but knowing how few major platforms there are (covering like 90% of what most internet users see) this is catastrophic. What someone should see shouldn't be decided in some Middle-European FB contractor's moderator sweatshop.
