The problem is us. 'We' do not want 'information'.

In general people tend to push their opinion (mainly based on gut-feeling) on others and are only interested in receiving confirmation of that opinion.

The internet and social media in particular are just another way of companies making money of serving our needs. Like supermarkets, cars, fashion, etc.

Personally I was never much into social media. I prefer to meet people real life.
