    A “secret” algorithm. Unlike all those other companies that just publish their proprietary algorithms on the net for anyone to try and game.

    My poor eyes are exhausted from all the rolling.

      I guess “secret” in the sense that not only the internals of the algorithm, but even the existence of the it is not quite public knowledge.
