Good. I am tired of the fact that no one is held accountable for the distortion of reality that is done by algorithmic feeds. These feeds can so easily be used to influence people. The curation of information is a manipulation of the real distribution of opinions.

EU always about 10 years behind, always insisting it's relevant. Who cares if facebook gets banned, people can curate their own feeds with local AI now, and it's going to be just as bad.

People won't use local AI to eyeball-max themselves the way Meta uses AI on its server.

So, Section 230 does not apply anymore in the EU ?

section 230 is a US law which never applied in the EU.

But no platform was ever held accountable for what their members posted, and it looks like this may soon change…

Not if you trade with the US of A :)
