Comment All content has bias (Score 1) 224

It seems to be a big stretch to equate the notions of recommendations (especially in a group such as /.) and content organization with censorship.

With so much information available to us, it is necessary and important to organize content and use recommendations. The important thing is to recognize that all content has bias, and to understand the source of the information so you can identify that bias.

Recommendations are just one more form of content. You can choose to read the book, you can choose to read the recommendation. The problem is not that there are recommendations, as such, but that information sources get consolidated, reducing the number of alternatives for getting information.

b.t.w....I loved F451.
