Should the government mandate that large tech companies share their algorithms with regulators?

No

Most large algorithms are impossible to understand as a person, input and output data should be available to see however

It depends. Which algorithms, and for what do the regulators need access to them for?

No as they are a business. But they should be completely transparent in what data their company collects, how it is collected and how it is used.

Yes, particularly if they are owned/administrated by United States individuals with connections to Israel, or with significant Israeli investment or ownership or involvement

this is a very generic question, which algorithms, they likely have hundreds or thousands. Can regulators really oversee these ?

No, only if there are serious allegations of harm or misconduct

Yes, and all software and algorithms should be open source

No, only if there are serious allegations of harm or misconduct

No, and the government has no right to interfere with private intellectual property
