I had to uninstall the YouTube app and start using vinegar via safari on iOS because I got tired of being insulted by deepfakes who called me stupid for not falling for their fake stimulus scam.

Same with YouTube ads. Lots of scam’s and reporting it always ends in my report getting denied…

I tried to report a Mr. Beast scam givaway ad I saw on the YouTube homepage. It told me to sign in. I promptly closed the tab right then.

Google also doesn’t care. I kept seeing the same scammy ads and sensationalist articles on my news feed, over and over, even after reporting them several times.
The only solution was to blacklist those sources so they don’t show up on my feed. I feel bad for other people who might get scammed though.
