Om Malik, a Technology Blogger and VC talks about the escalating filter bubbles and attention wars various social media platforms are creating in a great piece. Social Media Platforms, Algorithms, the rising Influencer Class and the Attention Economy are creating a harsher, meaner, online and digital landscape with increasing tribalism and polarization where everyone is out to get everyone’s attention constantly, and where clickbait headlines and hypermedia are more focused on getting views through outrage and increasing polarization rather than providing valuable information and promoting unity. He also says that we need to step away from the screens and disconnect and go outside and meet people spending more time in the physical world and less time in the digital world.
