So I am hearing right now Youtube and FB are massively starting to take down... "Misinformation" marking as spam. I have heard this from a dozen or so people on FB and one on Youtube. Even innocuous links to articles titled.. Is college a waste of money, are being marked as spam. Many people have been posting, and I have confirmed through simple searches, the conservative filter is off on Google. Posts from T_D are getting in, etc... Just a theory, but I think Google, FB, others perhaps, have taken existing algorithms offline temporarily to deploy a newer much larger, different system of censoring algorithms.

1700 google employees working on a website basically at with the coordination (a meeting 2 times per week) with a low level administration official. Conservative shit is being banned left and right on FB right now, and there was a joint statement about Google, FB, Twitter working to combat misinformation. Seems much more likely they are switching algorithms and have shut the old ones down during the transition. I know we are always looking for hope in all the little things, but Occams razor here...
