TED: Beware online "filter bubbles" | Eli Pariser

The video discusses the impact of algorithmic personalization on the internet, highlighting how platforms like Facebook and Google tailor content based on user behavior, leading to a 'filter bubble' where users are exposed only to information that aligns with their interests. This personalization can limit exposure to diverse perspectives, posing a challenge to democracy and informed citizenship. The speaker calls for ethical considerations in algorithm design, transparency, and user control to ensure the internet remains a tool for connection and learning.
