Think about it. This is an article, with its own 'share on Facebook' icon, entirely about a single persons interaction with a mechanized society, highly intricate and well and truly operating under the constraints of its totalitarian designers. Its not like we vote for Facebook features; that privilege is reserved for those with money to spend, making money, and it is an exclusive club indeed. Particularly given that those who attend to "Facebook habits", i.e. members of that church, are not in control. At all. So yeah, count "survive a dystopian dilemna" on the list of things that are now well and truly DONE.

Good god, this reads like a parody. There is no totalitarian conspiracy to manipulate your facebook feed. You are not in a dystopia. Having users vote for features of a popular website is unreasonable. If you like everything a recommendation algorithm feeds you, of course you are going to get shit recommendations. Your like data is no longer correlated with your actual preferences at all. It's an interesting experiment, but people are projecting their own fears and opinions onto the result.
