I'm pretty sure this is the kind of thing maximized by current increase GRAAARGGH feeling in readers algorithms, there's just so much, you were probably getting your GRAAARGGH maximized by something else.

anyway look at it this way - if the algorithms were working at giving you this important stuff in a way you were aware of it, you might have chosen a different username.

on edit: sometimes we are unaware of things just by happenstance and no algorithm tweaking will fix it, consider it a version of the XKCD 10000, I was aware of this as it passed in my feed at some point, but really if I was unaware of it I would assume it as a likely consequence of for profit prisons anyway - if asked to consider the possibility that is.
