It's moved beyond radio now too.

e.g. The Rohingya genocide in Myanmar was fuelled by Facebook's engagement algorithms[1].

In Rwanda, they had to create radio stations. Today, all you have to do is generate clicks for Meta.

Ah yes, the evil facebook, not at all caused by their terrorist activity.
