I wrote about this exact topic a few years back: "Algorithmic Bias is Not Just Data Bias" (https://aaronlspringer.com/not-just-data-bias/).

I think the author is generally correct but there is a lot of focus on algorithmic design and not on how we collectively decide what is fair and ethical for these algorithms to do. Right now it is totally up to the algorithm developer to articulate their version of "fair" and implement it however they see fit. I'm not convinced that is a responsibility that belongs to private corporations.
