I'm sympathetic to the push back she's offering against the idea that algorithms are unbiased because "they're just math", but the evidence of racism and sexism presented in the article doesn't seem convincing to me.
> For years, Noble studied particular phrases — “Black girls,” “Latina girls” and “Asian girls” — that bring up pornography without mention of words like sex or porn.
If I search up "black girls", "latina girls", "asian girls" and "white girls" on google, none of them bring up pornography.
