The web allows those so predisposed to flock to that which pushes their buttons the best. Manipulators will feed them exactly what they want, using that to steer and prod them ever further.

That would seem to be something of a benefit for the rest of society, as they isolate themselves into obscure corners. But the thing is, not being the only ones, there's a multitude of others splintering and splintering. And that's what the powers that be want, division and allegiance all in a bottle.
