Implementation of algorithmic delegated voting systems

A democratic system in which most issues are decided by direct referendum. However, since no one has time for this, participants can delegate (or take back) their votes at any time.

Algorithmic delegated voting systems (Liquid democracy) are commonly implemented using liquid feedback, a software combining aspects of representative and direct democracy.

Problems

Google and Facebook have implemented ("google votes") and then subsequently subverted the process by "suggesting" votes and delegations to users based on their ranking algorithms.
