Never thought I’d actually say this but I wish university gave us hw or practice questions like highschool did to prepare us for assessments apart from studying lectures and readings. All profs have their own preferences to questions n answers so —It’s not a stretch right?
@TrentRiley18 Unless we restart everyone’s brains and program an equality code with no past memories of biases, I think we might be stuck. #smh#unboundeq
The best app to represent algorithms would be Pinterest. Whatever you search up, it will make it their mission to make sure you have all possible details to that one idea. I looked up cute bouquets, the next thing I know, it’s guiding me towards an entire wedding plan #unboundeq
A positive affect algorithms have is connectivity which offers suggestions to accounts u may know through mutual connections.
On the other hand... People u don’t want can find u... is that a violation of safety? Even insta suggests private accounts to others #unboundeq
@bonstewart I just thought about that a moment ago, if there’s no scheme behind it, Educ wise, it can be beneficial to leading students in the right direction of their studies and focus groups, but not everything’s perfect and info may even be used for demographics of the area #unboundeq
Ik internet algorithms is what’s on trend, but do you ever think about how it knows everything? And how much more it could know of that we aren’t aware of ? #unboundeq
There’s so many thoughts to think about in many different aspects... thinking about this idea made me speechless apart from the limitless opinions I’d have to be said. It’s really something worth taking into consideration.
@lauren68059652 That’s actually something worth thinking about now that you’ve brought it up. Imagine buying a present for a friend with polar opposite tastes than you, to only get stuck with ads for the next couple of weeks ☠️
We all have to take algorithms into consideration when surfing the internet. What you search and react to, is what is programmed to be on your timeline more often

Internet algorithms are a really concerning topic we normally don’t give the time of day to think about...
Is anyone else iffy on the fact that all the ads we see are scary accurate to cater ourselves? #unboundeq#sketch#ads
@MichelonSofia I remember that ! That’s really weird, especially when we talked about the four wheeled ones and it literally showed that model over regular lined blades

#unboundeq "And so the question for us is when we are putting our heads down now and just doing our job, what are we missing?" (Ruha Benjamin, 2020).
This is a very important question that we all need to ask ourselves when we are put in an uncomfortable position.
@bonstewart Oh my gosh all the time. The idea of using incognito is a great point to make. Everything is unmarked and hidden, making browsing experiences a lot less stressful and overwhelming.😭
@CharlottedEDUC exactly. does this ever make you wary of searching for things outside your comfort zone? do you use Incognito Windows or anything like that to navigate this reality?
