Nicolas Kayser-Bril: Investigating the Instagram Algorithm

Nicolas Kayser-Bril, ​data journalist at ​Algorithm Watch, ​coordinated AW-EDJNet’s ​joint investigation on Instagram’s algorithm. In this video, he explains ​why the subject ​matters and how it could be approached, despite the lack of transparency of the algorithm.
