China wants to tighten control over algorithms

China's Internet regulator has passed a new law that will regulate algorithm-based recommendations on the Internet. The law affects a wide range of tech companies – from trading platforms to delivery services and social media groups. It opens the doors for government intervention and control of algorithms.

China has passed a law that will allow users to disable recommendations by algorithms in apps and online platforms. This is a global novelty. Tech companies are now required to notify users "in a conspicuous way" when algorithms are used to recommend content to users, the law states. Article 17 explains that users will be "allowed to opt-out of being targeted with algorithmic recommendations".
