187: It's the Facebook Algorithm, Stupid
The Facebook Whistleblower puts the spotlight on the Facebook algorithm last week (a very bad week for Facebook) at a Congressional hearing. Matt Binder breaks down the hearing and why it's about time the Facebook algorithm is the focus of all the many issues with the social media platform. Then on the patron half of the show: more on social media algorithms, the major outage that hit Facebook last week, YouTube demonetizes climate denialism, plus your questions, comments, and phone calls!
