Algorithms used by tech companies, such as those that recommend content or filter information, are often proprietary and closely guarded secrets. Proponents argue that transparency would prevent abuses and ensure fair practices. Opponents argue that it would harm business confidentiality and competitive advantage.

Maybe social media companies should share their algorithms since misinformation is playing such a huge role in elections and world politics. This draws massive amounts of money to try to get people to believe what you want them to believe.

If the companies do not share their algorithms, it can lead to misuse of power, as controling information is power. This sort of power is often profit driven and therefore our information may often be used for the profit, monetary or otherwise for big companies that do not care about people.
