I always thought shadow banning was a real thing, but I think he came out and said that that's not a real thing but I've seen it in my you know in person where I'll type somebody's name in and Usually it's supposed to come up on the you know searches, but it doesn't you know shadow banning is a if it is a real thing Like that's another one like shadow banning for what like if it's not something That is if you're not doing something that you could get kicked off the platform for it, right? You're not kicking them off. You're just pushing them down weird place but if you're doing that like why are you doing that like what Because like but what would be the justification from the ones that I have seen they're used to even be a website that you could Type in somebody's username to see if they're shadow banned, so that's kind of interesting, but Like a lot of porn stars are shadow banned because they don't want if you're looking up Christina Applegate They want Christina you know Apple bottom or something like that. You know what I mean? So it's it's like they're I still believe that's a thing But I'm pretty sure he came out and said it wasn't a real thing technically shadow banning Justin Bieber from the trending topics Right I mean they publicly said that that's not a shadow ban. That's a Strategy well no they were kind of forced into it because Justin Bieber was so his fans trend so hard They hashtag the shit out of that thing and they just took over the trending. It's probably happening for other Equally popular celebrities to like Taylor Swift's and Beyonce's yeah, yeah, yeah, you're probably right. You're probably right so Whatever they're doing at YouTube with comments and whatever they're doing with Twitter. Here's the real conversation right the real conversation is Do we want that do we want them to curate? Do we want them to decide? Whose YouTube videos you could subscribe to and who it's gonna be do they unsubscribe people is that real or is that a glitch? Yeah, who knows I don't think they unsubscribe. I don't think so either but people of well. It's listen If they're willing to move Justin Bieber from the number one trending because he number one trends too hard And they think it's ridiculous not to just acknowledge that our culture that there's certain humans in our culture are spending an exorbitant amount Of time thinking about that beautiful man right there's a lot But why do we want to lie and pretend that it's not as big so if they just I'm not saying they shouldn't But if they did that just if they did that you go, okay? Are we through the looking glass now you can change the data like what what do you? When when do you decide who gets pushed here who gets pushed there when do you decide?
