The "moderation" for Shorts is just spectacular! And I don't mean good.
The amount of back-to-back "Hi I'm Elon Musk and I'm something something bitcoin something something..." deepfakes is astounding. There are a handful that are seemingly pixel for pixel identical, yet as much as you report them over and over again, they only seem to shown more and more.
Then there are the countless sexually inappropriate ones that also fills the stream.
The gruesome ones showing rats/mice getting spiked to death, animals suffering on the side of the road after they've been hit by a truck/bus/car, so on and so forth.
It's just horrible.
- yjftsjthsd-h 4y agoOkay, so assorted cryptocurrency scams have obvious financial incentives, and I assume the sexual ones are trying to get people onto a paid site. What's driving the animal gore videos? I can't think that there's anything to sell there; is it just people uploading stuff for the shock value?
- chrisjc 4y agoIt's 4-5 distinct animal gore videos but through different user accounts, so i don't think it's just people uploading stuff. Maybe there are accounts (compromised or just bots) racing against each other bringing content over from TikTok? And who knows what happens when you click on links in the description or follow instructions in the overlays. I swipe away before the gore comes and haven't read any of the descriptions or overlays.
