Lab 13

As mentioned, owing to the strike, we're not meeting in the classroom. Instead we'll meet in Professor Jones' apartment (details to follow) for more of a discussion than a lab.

We wanted to amplify a few topics that the Slack discussion and in-class discussion highlighted around how algorithms impact identity, autonomy, and platform neutrality.

To that end, please see the 4 plan text excerpts in #readings, which we will cover on Wednesday. They are in chronological order.
