    Pretty incredible. It is very clear now why Muskrat is so interested in Infowars fate. He is also guilty of running a foreign propaganda site. He sold access to manipulate countries. Absolutely disgusting.

    Interesting experiment with UFC clip. Content ID systems are pretty powerful these days. It only took 9 minutes to flag it.

    But that’s the point. Flagging content from corporations is more profitable in the long run even if you lose some traffic because of content removal. But removing spam that generates a lot of traffic would be net a loss, so for-profit companies are incentivized not only to keep it, but promote it.

      Incentivized until society collapses and they have to flee their headquarters with the power down and no food in the store and there’s an angry mob of hopped-up people with spears outside, who think they’re all working for George Soros. They think that probably won’t happen, though, and in the meantime they can make some money.
