No. If I’m asking for it and they give me what I asked for, that’s not publishing. If they pick some content that would normally be buried and jam it in my face because some ML algorithm thinks it’ll cause engagement that’s publishing.

I don’t think it’s insane. I think letting black box ML algorithms moderate public discourse is insane. I have no problem with that being turned into a liability for big tech.
