Filter bubbles and echo chambers 2/4

These phenomena:

• Create the impression that everyone shares your views, even when that’s not true.
• Worsen polarisation and make respectful, democratic conversations more difficult.
• Limit critical thinking, especially around complex issues.
• Contribute to the spread of climate change disinformation by repeatedly showing false or misleading content and filtering out credible scientific information.

To burst these bubbles, users must actively seek out different sources, follow diverse voices, and be open to contrasting viewpoints.
