Indeed. Just last week there was a whole thread here on HN about the problems with toxicity detectors: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30066720 I'm not sure if this is the system youtube is using, but it would certainly align with my experience where people have left innocuous comments on my videos that disappear a couple hours later - comments such as "this music is beautiful, damn" where the only thing I can think of, short of that user's entire account getting deactivated, is that the word "damn" tripped some sort of toxicity flag. I hate bullies as much as the next person on HN, but I'm deeply unsettled by youtube's recent efforts in the direction of manufacturing consent. |
