Eli Pariser
The Filter Bubble
What the Internet Is Hiding from You
Penguin Group (USA), 2012
What's inside?
If Google were lying to you, how could you tell?
Recommendation
MoveOn.org president Eli Pariser’s text is hypnotic, and its implications are far-reaching. He examines how personalization on the Internet shapes what people read and think. Pariser’s treatise is frequently amusing, but more often disturbing. Since the web’s increasingly individually tailored content affects every area of daily life, getAbstract recommends this book to Internet users (and that’s just about everyone now), plus futurists, technologists, and those interested in truth, ethics, and contentment.
