People have tested this by starting a new facebook, liking a few things here and there, say maybe a few conservative posts, next thing you know the feed is full of Nazi Alt-Right propaganda. They also filter out stuff THEY think you don't like. So if you keep liking conservative slant stories and dislike a few liberal ones, you won't see any liberal stories anymore. I read an article about this awhile ago and am looking for it. Meanwhile there are plenty articles on this that agree, I just liked that one better. --- sigless user is me or am I? ...

welp, haven't found the article I saw half a year ago yet
meanwhile here is a good one https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2016/may/11/facebook-censorship-news-feed-trending-topics With the news feed, theres no such luck. The algorithm that drives it makes just as many editorial choices as the trending topic curators, but you cant interview it to ask why. It will never be fired and decide to speak out about its decisions under the cloak of anonymity. Instead, it just sits there, day in day out, totally dictating the content seen by more than a billion users of the biggest social network in the world. --- sigless user is me or am I? ...

From my understanding, they sold ads to (russian) companies that would then use the algorithm to only service inflammatory ads to certain sects of people.
I.e. show violent BLM propaganda to white, racist conservatives in WV in order to fuel the divide in America by making them believe that BLM was ready to be violent --- The name is wackyteen* for a reason. Never doubt. *No longer teen ... Copied to Clipboard!

Basically the idea is to get you coming back to facebook as much as possible even if that means reading fake conspiracy stories written by Russian spys lmao but the real kicker is some old person doesn't realize facebook censored out the content that might give an alternative voice and shed light that such stories are fake they just consuming what facebook puts on their feed thinking this is really what their friends are buzzing about --- sigless user is me or am I? ...
