Current law doesn’t have machinery to represent this idea, so it makes sense their arguments won’t match. But at the core of all the arguments this is the idea

Current law doesn’t have machinery to represent this idea, so it makes sense their arguments won’t match.
But at the core of all the arguments this is the idea that’s trying to be settled.
And really it’s more complicated than all that because it boils down to the algorithm deciding who to show the posts too.
An unbiased algorithm is impossible.
Show all political messages to all people, now you’ve just incentivized politicians to have multiple people full time jobs be to produce more messages.
- erichocean 4y ago> An unbiased algorithm is impossible. False. Twitter's original algorithm (everyone you followed in reverse insertion order) is trivially unbiased. The bias creeps in when they analyze the content of the speech (or who specifically likes it or…). You can 100% do an unbiased algorithmic feed that re-orders (or omits) things. Twitter and Facebook could do it today. They shadow ban and suppress all sorts of things (beyond kicking actual human users off the site).
