What happened to me? All the big social media sites send me to an information prison. It makes using the internet not fun anymore if you can't break out of your information bubble to get a different perspective! There's no "common knowledge" anymore and that development is fueled by people giving away their valuable data willy nilly. I just don't want that, I hate it actually and I think it's very dangerous tribalism and it's not has reached its peak yet, though more and more people get annoyed after noticing all these information prisons.

Also who uses incognito mode? A common sense of what happens in the world a common baseline and understanding won't just magically appear when you turn on icognito mode. That's an even larger claim imho.
