A US District Court recently upheld that feed algorithms contain both expressive and non-expressive components, and that the non-expressive components are indeed able to be regulated constitutionally.
This was a really interesting breakdown of the legal nuances around algorithm regulation. It makes sense that not all parts of a feed algorithm are ‘expressive,’ and the court’s reasoning seems pretty solid. I’d be curious to see how this plays out in practice will platforms actually adjust their algorithms, or will they just find ways around the regulation? Also I wonder how this might affect user experience in the long run. Appreciate the deep dive
