The Filter Bubble
Cognitive bias is really just a mental shortcut, says cyber security expert Bruce Schnire. It's in effect when we're tricked into doing things like clicking on links and phishing emails or sharing clickbait social media posts. The attention economy of social media combined with the dopamine rush that we get when we share can lead to what's known as the filter bubble. Technology is increasing polarization just by allowing more discrimination," he adds.
