Chase Leonard · Answer 2

The correct answer is A) we find ourselves in an information bubble

What occurs when we customize our personal social media i. such a say that it only reinforces what we already think, is that we find ourselves in an information bubble.

If we decided to customize our preferences in social media, we only receive that kind of information that only appeals to what we like. The information that we receive is "circular," which means it constantly repeats the same thing and we limit ourselves to what we like, instead of being open to information that is different that could open to new knowledge. Furthermore, new information makes us think, reflect, and consider new options that could be interesting to know.
