What would happen if a law was passed that said all content determined via algorithms had to be open source?

I'm not sure I understand the intent of your question. What do you mean "determined" via algorithms?
My assumption is that he means the recommendation algorithms for social media and content feeds like Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, etc.
Right, but even then, what's open source? The algorithm?
I definitely wasn't clear enough, and the question is phrased too broadly. It was intended to ask about content suggesting algorithms, like YouTube or TikTok, so people would have a better idea of why they are seeing the content that appears, if that makes sense.
Ah, right! Thank you for the clarification
