I'm pointing out a statistical fact from the article that black people are more hurt by this technology. I'm not arguing for racist intent, but against accepting unfairness towards one group as acceptable.

Dynamic range is of a photo is something controllable by humans building this technology. Contrast is a technical limitation and not a physical one. Lookup the articles on how early stage photography couldn't capture darker skin colors. Again, not racism, but related to incomes and advertising, but still had effects that disproportionally helped certain groups and harmed others.
