So is that going to be another parcel of life under the state control? It is easy to predict such tools are going to be abused (for example excluding products from a producer that has opposite political views to the currently ruling people)

Every company today that you rely on to discover products will shape what you see for their own advantage.

Google puts their own ads more prominently and bans competitors from certain ad spaces, Amazon does the same, as does even Yahoo.

And your worst fear is that maybe the government might end up just as bad as the companies that you see as alternative?

There is a difference thought - you can't have multiple governments to choose from at any given time. State always limit the choice.
