+%Jonathan Zittrain is interested in algorithmic accountability,

+%relationship before they announce it, to their ability to
+%engineer an election by prompting one side’s supporters.
+%They’d be in the soup if they were caught, but they have been
+%near the soup a number of times. One internal meeting had the
+%question “What responsibility does FB have to prevent
+%President Trump?” That has repudiated once leaked, but the age
+%of innocence is behind us. Back in 2005 Google apologised when
+%the hate site “jew watch news” appeared in search results for
+%“jew”; but the site has morphed from tool to friend.
+%Facebook’s M and Apple’s Siri are the same. This leads
+%Jonathan to the idea of “information fiduciaries” whereby the
+%big firms would have to put user welfare first like doctors or
+%lawyers. Should Google tell you to vaccinate your child?
+%Already in Europe they suppress hate speech and promote
+%counter-narratives. To whom does Uber owe a fiduciary duty –
+%the driver or the passenger? And should data scientists join
+%divines, medics, lawyers and surveyors as a learned
+%profession?
