Is there any comment from dang or tomhow on such auto flagging? Not that I doubt you, it's just that I've only seen them talk about explicit flagging from users and weighting factors, which number of comments, number of downvotes,

ICE agents have a better budget for this - largely going to waste. Remember Kristi Noem's $70 million luxury flying weekender with queen sized bed et al? That'd help more than a few disadvantaged children.
