#1: We are not suggesting that it is the responsibility of users alone to try to change and act on power asymmetries produced by algorithmic systems. Yet, the complexity of the system makes the user an equally important figure in discovering and intervening in the politics of algorithms (including, for example, those embedded in search engine results). Users are thereby not only part of the process of the creation of large datasets on which algorithms operate and perform their power, but they can also tactically work with algorithmic interfaces to influence algorithmic processing to be conductive to specific politics, such as repair politics — Julia Velkova & Anne Kaun, Algorithmic resistance: media practices and the politics of repair (2019)
