The big iffy issue about algorithms is how it gives vendors too much power. Basically a vendor can "play favorites" and prevent certain content creators from being discovered, or push their favorites.
Consider how vendors like YouTube and Instagram started to push the creators they wanted you to see - despite what the user might want to see.
In essence, my biggest reason for client side algorithms is to take that power out of the vendors hands.
