François Chollet on Twitter: "1. Tech is never neutral. If it has an impact on the world, then this impact has a moral direction. 2. The existence of Facebook and its effort to support the Trump campaign is the #1 reason why Trump could still be reelected (together with Fox News, which has much less reach).… https://t.co/IVTBVAfrdZ"

  Everything has an impact on the world, or a potential to have one. Having an impact does not imply moral direction.

  Fox News probably has more impact on people who actually go to vote, eg. Retired pp.

  I see this every day. Common falsehoods, rumor and prejudice are spread person to person within private neighborhood groups. Is this just human nature or is Facebook optimizing for this?

  You cannot try to social engineer away the "Trump problem". People have a lot more agency then you think they have.

  #1 reason why Trump would win: many people like him #2 reason: not all votes are equal, Clinton "won" last time #3 is mass media, press,… Anyway, the world cannot depend on SV or US, it is time for the Internet. Build the future, leave them behindhttps://twitter.com/trylks/status/1264379217980133376 …

  In 2015, when Trump decided to run, he was the top trending news topic on Google news every day-at a time when Fox was totally ignoring him because he won’t tow the conservative ideology. Considering Trump spent less on Ads, it’s obvious he played with Google algos as well

  François, I think you’re brilliant, and I do believe Facebook can and should better regulate its platform from intentional manipulation, but doesn’t this seem a tad too far? Zuck actively trying to re-elect Trump?
