*Disclaimer: not being facetious
You don't need to involve technology to know what manipulative info people are gobbling up. Just watch the public. What they do. What they talk about.
Often, they will unanimously begin discussing the same topic(s) in the flesh all of a sudden. This is how you know it is not an organic process. They did not arrive at that thought through lived experience, but by what they'd seen on a screen.
It is nothing new. The 'feeds' in question were once formerly television.
*Disclaimer #2: This may only really work if you, yourself are sufficiently unplugged from manipulative feed-based media.
While Ubuntu only ever metes out the occasional beating with things like spy lens, Windows has really been hitting it out of the park consistently. It is rivaled only maybe by Mac & iOS when it comes to punishing users for making stupid decisions. Their silently replacing local files with fronted copies served from MS's own "cloud" was a real banger. I can't wait to see what creative new ways they'll come up with next to make normies suffer.
