If you have a voluntary choice of whether you want to filter out, or not filter out, what you are calling "noise", then in that situation you would be more free, yes. The solution to "noise" is give people the choice of if they want that info or not. And to allow people to choose if they want to see it, or choose if they don't want to see it.
