Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

The Algorithm first tested by Cambridge Analytica and Palantir with Peter Thiel and Collegues, to see if they could manipulate the emotions of Facebook users (they could).
He went on to develop people-targetting data systems so the FBI and CIA could locate and track people around the world by their demographics, internet footprint and data.
Thiel then did the same for MOSSAD, eventually taking over at MOSSAD's R&D company Carbyne (after Thiel's friend Epstein died in Prison).
That's how the Algorithm got started, developed, and was used, now most big tech companies have their own versions of it.
