Poll: Should algorithms be regulated like drugs or gambling?
Would you support legally regulating content recommendation algorithms in a similar way to gambling and narcotics, two other categories of behavior-hijacking products?

- fullshark 4y agoData collection and retention should be regulated, a downstream effect of that is regulation of content recommendation algorithms imo so yes.
