Are you living in your own social media bubble?

Radio 4 in Four

Available for over a year

Bobby Friction has started to realise that his day-to-day online activities are not only being monitored but in some senses manipulated. How often he interacts with specific friends, pages or sites sculpts and filters everything and everyone he comes into contact with online. But when, like Bobby, you decide you've had enough of living in a social media bubble, what can you do to change things? First broadcast on Bursting the Social Network Bubble, 29 November 2016.
