Nowadays social media platform shows news feeds that align with our beliefs and perspectives. This creates “filter bubbles” or “echo chambers". These customized streams of content protect us in our own ideological echo chambers, blocking out opposing views and a range of different perspectives. This occurs due to social media algorithms that restrict exposure to different viewpoints and contribute to the spread of misinformation. Acknowledging this increasing worry, Truesight, a recently established company, is implementing a bold strategy: "uncensored news streams”.

Truesight works on data detox and aims to provide unfiltered content that covers diverse views and opinions. On the positive side, users will read news feeds with a more diverse range of perspectives, leading to building critical thinking ability and mitigating any false information. However, on the negative side, users may face information overload that could overwhelm them.

Furthermore, the presence of damaging material, such as hate speech and extreme opinions, poses a technical challenge due to unfiltered feeds. How can Truesight ensure an unaltered experience while also minimizing the dissemination of false content and hateful speech? Thus,

Truesight needs to create a system that provides unedited content while also limiting the dissemination of false information and discriminatory language.

Truesight is not the only player in "data detox." Privacy-centric web browsers and simplistic social networking platforms are known competitors. Yet, Truesight's focus on raw news updates positions them as a possible challenger in fighting echo chambers.

Its strategy brings up important concerns regarding filter bubbles, data privacy, and the future of news consumption. Is it worthwhile to accept the uneasiness of an unfiltered news feed in order to have a more knowledgeable society? We encourage different organizations to investigate this controversy and evaluate Truesight's bold trial in data detox.
