'We didn't sell our soul to the devil, we auctioned it'.
Google in a nutshell.
Are you telling me that multi-billion dollar companies don't give a fuck about people or their kids???? Who knew!
"I was just trying to watch some spider man dancing videos and somehow I wound up being fed Ben Shapiro and PragerU videos"
YouTube's algorithm sucks, it funnels everyone to far-right garbage, and so many of their "kid's" videos are videos that kids absolutely shouldn't be watching.
Having talked to people at YouTube, they all know very well this is happening, but they are too afraid of retribution from the Republicans to take any action.
So feeding America racist and homophobic trash it is.
So we need to instill fear from the left too
My favorite are the videos of nannies playing with kids in some weird way and then they bend over or spread their legs. Quality garbage there. Thanks Google.
YouTube? Lying?!?! Who would've thought
Gotta indoctrinate them young to be model consumers.
Youtube knows it makes money.
Classic Google.
they'll just pay yet another small fine for their bad behavior
If you tell a company to do something it ALWAYS has to be a thinly veiled threat that you will fuck their wallet if they don't comply. Otherwise it's all lip service and does nothing but waste our time
do no evil
I mean I know it’s not in the charter any more… but honestly… 😬
Capitalism gonna capitalize...
