I read the FAQ about this feature. I read this about whether the stories are personalized to me:
... When personalization does occur, recommendations rely on a process of story sorting and filtering that happens locally in your personal copy of Firefox.

The algorithms make assumptions about what I want to read and learn. But I want to be free to encounter and learn things that I might not otherwise come across.
How can I avoid being pigeonholed and limited in this way?
