The UK is dropping an immigration algorithm that critics say is racist

The news: The UK Home Office has stated it will cease working with an algorithm to course of action visa applications that critics claim is racially biased. Opponents to it argue that the algorithm’s use of nationality to determine which applications get rapid-tracked has led to a technique in which “people from rich white countries get “Speedy Boarding” poorer individuals of colour get pushed to the back of the queue.”

In the meantime the UK will adopt a short-term technique that does not use nationality to sort applications.
