Why do you think it is an issue? I think everyone already filters intuitively. It's called having a "bullshit filter". I believe it makes not much difference whether it's automated or everyone does it manually.
I think the chance that I would click on a bullshit source like Fox News is very low because I don't trust them. Even if Google brought it up as the first result.
My point is that people already only click on search results that they agree with. Nobody wants to see stuff that they disagree with. That is human nature.
So living in a filter bubble already happens without automatic filters. It happens in our brains and we call it personality.
