Hi all,

Given how most algorithms and even tribes/communities tend to create echo 
chambers and filter bubbles, how do you go about busting them? How do you 
actively seek out and try to understand a view point that is (radically) 
different from yours?

To make it more concrete, have you read a book on a subject that you did not 
agree with in the beginning but was converted on or more inclined to 
re-consider after you were through the book? Or a book that provided sound 
arguments on a contrarian subject?

Do you follow someone on social media or subscribe to their newsletter just 
because their views are different from yours, but yet they are reasoned in why 
they hold those views?

If I have to give an example, the books "The Net Delusion" and "Cyber War Will 
Not Take Place" comes to mind for me. As you can see there is a shortfall that 
I am trying to correct :)

Please spread the wisdom!

Regards, 
Srijith
