This is necessary for algorithms that rely on external services, however it also implies that this algorithm is able to send your input data outside of the Algorithmia platform.
This allows an algorithm to compose sophisticated functionality using other algorithms as building blocks , however it also carries the potential of incurring additional royalty and usage costs from any algorithm that it calls .
