Abstract

It has become increasingly clear in recent years that the internet—long framed as a value-free tool for advancing human knowledge—frequently replicates the flawed societal power structures in which it was created, perpetuating stereotypes and racism under a guise of impartiality. This week on the Science podcast, Safiya Noble discusses how discrimination is created and reinforced by search engines. https://scim.ag/3DwULim
