Bangers. Bangers and mash with a side of pure bangers:

"[European election-related] content from low-credibility accounts had 1.7 times more engagement on Instagram, 7.6 times more on Facebook, and 2.4 times more views on YouTube per 1,000 followers compared to that from high-credibility accounts." [1]

"in 2018, [...] more than 70% of content views on the platform were the result of an algorithmic recommendation. We see no reason why that proportion would have dropped since then." [1]

This violates "fairness, freedom of expression and freedom of information. Given finite amounts of user attention, artificially elevating low-credibility accounts comes at the expense of all other accounts on the platform, including high-credibility ones." [1]
