>Is there an established "kittens to terrorist" pipeline?
Yes, its what Eli Pariser described as a Filter Bubble, first identified in Google Search results. I wonder if there has been some code sharing going on between Google and Youtube, or if team members have jumped ship?

Some youtube holes can be good but considering the untapped potential of Youtube for DJ mixes as background music for coders, I find the youtube hole incredibly frustrating.
I mean I've only just found this DJ and its pretty decent mix and her previous work is quite good as well, but considering she is Ukrainian, I wonder if this is Youtube's pro Ukrainian political policy in effect?

I found this decent mix (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5vHRUsP20dQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5vHRUsP20dQ) only after listening to a couple of 145bpm German Underground techno mixes.
I mean what were the algorithms thinking?
The only link I can see is its from the Boiler Room in Berlin and Berlin is where you can find some decent German underground techno, plus the time of day is a factor, ie trying to slow down someone's Dopamine stimulation at 4am in the morning?
But if you listen to some of the more established DJ's like Boris Brecha, Carl Cox, David Guetta, Adam Beyer or brands like Creamfields, Global Underground, Tomorrowland, Resistance, Transmission, Hooj Tunes, Essential Mix, you'll get stuck in youtube holes left right and centre and the quality tends to get worse the longer you listen. I mean their algorithms dont know how to curate DJ mixes, just like most people cant take people on a journey of aural delights when DJ'ing.
One other thing I have noticed with Youtube is bank holidays in the UK, they tend to promote borderline illegal car activities, things like cruises where people lose it leaving the cruise or speeding videos, more so on August bank holiday and the last May bank holiday. I'm left with the impression Youtube is trying to incite illegal car activities, so maybe the NY Times and the Guardian do have a point!?!
