> the ability of people to filter the ideas to which they are exposed I'd say its the reverse. The inability of people to apply a reasonable filter on the stuff they are exposed to (and I mean mental filter, not technical filter). I've seen people go full-on down the rabbit hole of conspiracism to their own detriment purely on the basis of following YouTube's recommendations (without actively seeking specific topics).
