The idea that the algorithms are even deterministic might be a stretch... But my god, the way things would be gamed if they had to publish every change to PageRank or the FB feed? The only way anything could ever stay usable would be to block all the brands.

I highly doubt the algorithm is deterministic in the face of server failures/timeouts (and expect the algorithm explicitly accounts for and tolerates them).
