Could Hiding Metrics On Social Media Be A Way To Censor You?

By Scott Cunningham | Crypto & Things | 12 Sep 2019

We've seen Instagram hide likes, will other platforms follow and what precedent will this set for their capacity to censor content?

It is released under the guise of combating social media addiction which I wholeheartedly support, but what concerns me is how it could pave the way for making it very easy to manipulate what you see and consume online.

How will this affect your social media experience? Will it help or hinder it?
