I actually think that breaks it, I like it better when everybody gets the same results for the same queries. People (via algorithms or directly) shaping what others get to see, rather than configuration and user empowerment, is something I reject.

To have that be part of the common world. Just like I wouldn't want Wikipedia to show a different version of the world to every visitor.
