Most large algorithms are impossible to understand as a person, input and output data should be available to see however
@9YLLZZK2mos2MO
It depends. Which algorithms, and for what do the regulators need access to them for?
@9YJZG962mos2MO
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.
@9TN3JG23mos3MO
Yes, particularly if they are owned/administrated by United States individuals with connections to Israel, or with significant Israeli investment or ownership or involvement
@9MQSRDM 7mos7MO
