A small quib: filter bubbles don’t require using personal data. But they are about giving readers what they want. In a very different context, I ran an analysis of terrorism coverage in the NY Times to measure what a geographic filter bubble looks like: How Media Fuels Our Fear of Western Terrorism https://www.nemil.com/s/part2-terrorism.html https://www.nemil.com/s/part2-terrorism.html I also ran the same analysis for all the articles over a decade by geography (and compared to population, GDP, etc): Visualizing 10 years of International Coverage in the NY Times https://www.nemil.com/s/nytimes-international-coverage.html https://www.nemil.com/s/nytimes-international-coverage.html While filter bubbles are more pervasive in digital media (where we can segment each user, including with personal information), they’ve also always existed.
