Summary | Facebook does not mind showing Kim Kardashian’s cleavage, but it didn't allow images of topless Aboriginal women. Major social network platforms are led by capitalism, and although they claim they want to create global and equal platforms, not all stories are treated the same way. As a result, On Facebook, images of famous women naked are okay whereas images of other women around the world are deemed “inappropriate”.

Summary | One could think that artificial intelligence robots are not racist or sexist but because they learn from information circulating on the internet, they are subject to the biases as most poeple. This is why a beauty contest judged by an AI robot favored white people as more beautiful. Online job listings can also be biased based on gender so that women will not see higher-paying job listings or gender inclusive language gets lost in translation.
