Any digital platform (like social media or a marketplace), which satisfies the following conditions

- decides which wares (social media posts or products) by sellers are shown to users by automated algorithms

- Makes money when users engage with said wares

- Is owned by a large number of investors

Will, if you believe standard optimization theory and that sellers are clever, devolve into crap.
