Google terminated our Developer Account, says it is “associated”
We need legislation forcing companies to manually review algorithmic decisions that impact people's lives - there has to be a proper appeals process.<p>It's simply not economical for many companies to deal with the long tail of false positives, so they don't. Google has billions of users, and if their algorithms are 99.999% right about bans, their metrics look great but that's still tens of thousands users wrongfully banned.<p>I'm not usually a fan of government intervention but this is such a no-brainer for regulation.<p>With how much our modern lives are dependent on services like Google's, they effectively become utilities and should be regulated as such.
