“Fox News has *nothing* on YouTube globally. Nothing. This isn’t just ideological slant: it’s individualized, harmful, hateful propaganda at the scale of billions—ensnaring the vulnerable the most.”
Zeynep continues,
There is a lot of focus on the harms of engagement algorithms and design on Facebook (which are *very* real) but the damage YouTube is doing especially to young people and around the world especially in places with lower literacy/education and weak institutions is immense.
