sustained by mobile connections. The second link with the video has some nice clear examples of the
ideas. The problem is that it becomes hard to find different things, things that you did not know that
would like, but do once exposed to them. I certain want good filters when I am trying to narrow things
down, but an ability to turn it off is certainly necessary. There are many consequences to these bubbles
on both sides of their desirability.
