Two people who open the same social media app will see different things. For example, you might see a recipe video, a local news clip, and a friend's photo, while someone else might see a sports highlight, a sneaker review, and a travel vlog. In this session, Digital Navigators will share insights into how that happens, who decides, and what controls you actually have over social media algorithms and data sharing. This class will be delivered by a DOORS program instructor.
