YouTube accused of aiming ads at kids after promising it wouldn’t do that::Web giant comes out swinging, says allegations ‘without merit’
‘We didn’t sell our soul to the devil, we auctioned it’.
“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.
YouTube? Lying?!?! Who would’ve thought
Gotta indoctrinate them young to be model consumers.
They did… And there is a lot of creepy content that is targeted at kids still.
Classic Google.
they’ll just pay yet another small fine for their bad behavior
