This Episode Dua and Afroze talk to John, a software engineer and analyst at Facebook. While remaining anonymous, John delves into Facebook's algorithm and it's biases pertaining to Palestinian content, how politics influences the training set of the algorithm, and how the reach of a post on instagram works. John reveals how certain words are blacklisted purposefully by Facebook, while other biases exist due to blindspots that in the end still block the Palestinian narrative.
