This Medium post reads like propaganda/promotional material. Algorithms can also do good at burying propaganda. What you want/need or believe you want/need may also be dangerous to you. I am against predatory algorithms but this post makes me recoil with all of the promotion that comes with it. Not sure what to think anymore.
China has a history of running propeganda/promotion campaigns including running them as ads at the beginning of YouTube videos to get the first word in as an attempt to control the narrative.
- bllguo 4y agoI am seriously concerned with the rampant paranoia and lack of critical thinking in these accusations. People genuinely think the Chinese government is sponsoring Medium posts for niche audiences and that they have any interest in HN commenters? It's simply beyond comprehension. Y'all latched onto what, < $1M? in Russian FB ad spend and let your imaginations run to the moon and back.
