essential to other products within an economy. Living in an information society has exposed us to extensive amounts of information. However, the quality of information is highly dependent on a myriad of factors such as open source movements, personalization and the environment in which we access the information (Quintero, 4/1/2014).

The secret to businesses thriving is customer satisfaction. Whatever products or services it is selling to its customer, customer satisfaction is key. The airlines know this secret and have been implementing it in their day to day flights. “Good evening Ms. Smith, thank you for taking this flight.

Pariser managed to draw me into the book using not only this easy to follow wording, but also because the subject of personalization and filtering of the internet was a recent concept to me, being one of the many people that at first thought we had almost limitless access to anything on the Internet. Since this day and age seem to revolve around technology and Internet use
errors in logic. Errors in logic are self-imposed distortions of thinking that will cause depression and anxiety. There are six errors in logic, selective abstraction, arbitrary interference, magnification, minimization, overgeneralization, and personalization. Selective abstraction is solely focusing on aspect of a situation, while ignoring all the other important ones; an example being that you felt your team lost the soccer game because of you, even though if it wasn’t for your two goals, the team

It does this by drawing the reader into the world of the photograph, and allowing them to experience the realism of the scenario. This connection has amplified the level of communication between humans, namely, in the field of journalism. In the article “To Tell the Truth: Codes of Objectivity in Photojournalism” written by Donna Schwartz, she discusses the methods employed by photojournalists

The Internet provides us with the answers to our questions, but perhaps this is the problem at hand.
