“Want us to stop bombarding you with psychic damage? Hand over data on your every move, now. Why yes we will sell it, no you don’t get a cut of the profit.”
same but for those pet food ads that use recordings of actual pets eating food. i hate ASMR style content so much, everytime these commercials with their animal eating noises come on i freak out.
ASMR gives me the deepest of heebie-jeebies, it’s fascinating to me that anyone likes those noises
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
Ultimately disturbing
Youtubes new account recommendations are disturbing. It’s not that they want your data its just that the default behaviour is already warped
I think they definitely prey upon the “negative engagement is still engagement” phenomenon. If they could get away with it they’d be bombarding children with violent and pornographic content just to drive up the numbers. Who cares if you traumatized a person, they still saw the ads! More ads! Ads ads ads. Looking forward to future car commercials where a Mr. Beast type runs over a cyclist and saying “did EYE do that?” while making soy face and pointing at his eye.
Ugh, YouTube keeps thinking I want to watch videos about an owl covered in shit and piss.
Owl eats a can of beans and farts on everyone!!!
