I know the general term, but I don’t see how in this case still. On somewhere like amazon, there’s a clear incentive to have bad search, initially to capture sellers, then later to force them to pay to be high in search results, but youtube has no such program. You can’t pay to be higher in search results.

In general these corpos are interested in keeping you on their platforms to sell you more shit, ie ads. They do this by suggesting you controversial shit for further engagement. You can clearly see this when browsing shorts on YT.
