Who Regulates the Feed? Platform Power & Public Interest

Social media platforms shape what billions of people see, read, and believe. Their algorithms determine which voices are amplified and which are suppressed; their policies define acceptable speech; their enforcement actions can silence individuals or movements. This power over public discourse rivals that of governments—yet platforms operate as private companies with limited public accountability.
