Hank Green has a video up today about how, in 2016, algorithmic recommendation systems became the most common way people in the US consumed news and information.

In this video, he says over and over again that "we" had *no idea* that this would be a bad idea, that this would have consequences for the world; and I can't help but feel pretty frustrated, because I seem to recall a lot of people being pretty upset about algorithmic feeds at the time.

Am I misremembering??
