Bokhari: Big Tech Can 'Turn Down the Volume' on Entire Movements

Many of us know about the overt censorship, prominent Trump supporters getting banned from these platforms, grassroots Trump supporters getting banned from these platforms.

These companies have figured out that the people who share similar political viewpoints, theyll often use similar language, link to similar websites, or talk about similar issues.

And what theyre doing is, theyre training their artificial intelligence algorithms to recognize how different types of people talk. And that gives them the ability to essentially turn the volume up or down on entire political movements without anyone realizing.

If they want to, they can ensure that no-one who is pro-life, or pro-Trump, or critical of mass immigration, or critical of endless foreign wars ever goes viral.

If people want to counteract that, they have to go old-school, and actually talk to people, talk to undecided voters, make sure they get both sides of the story.

If they wanted to, they could stop undecided voters from ever seeing pro-Trump posts or a pro-Trump article at the top of their feed or at the top of their search results.
