Facebook Tried to Make Its Platform a Healthier Place. It Got Angrier Instead.

I argue that the decision to maintain an algorithm that encourages divisive content is bad (WSJ Sep 2021). The bad decision raises three questions :

  1. Who made the decision not to revise the algorithm?
  2. What information did the decider have?
  3. What incentives did the decider face?
