I don't expect any transparency from a company that mines everyone's data and shadowbans at random...
If I ban someone from my channel that person still thinks her comments are being read by anyone. When in fact only her is seeing the content, so is fooled into thinking it's seen by anyone. She would need to log out or use another account to check if it's still there!
If you are not familiar with the term, this is what it means:
"
Banning a user from a web forum in such a way that the banned user is unaware of the ban. Usually takes the form of showing that user's posts/profile/etc. only to that user; other users never see them."
Google, META (Instagram...) everyone uses it.
The irony is that technology seems to have evolved but we always forget if it was created by us, it can be INFERIOR. Not the other way around.
Computers cannot differentiate the context from what has been said, we need human intervention for that, even if the judgement is flawed. But hey, let's poison the entire community by banning some words as if they were a threat by themselves, and worse, let's not warn anyone this is being done... 🤣
Word banning for me is based on this:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newspeak
A similar approach is done with countless videos which are demonetized or banned/the uploader punished even if they don't willingly or blatantly infringe anything. Most of the time all these actions are done by a computer, not a button pushed by some employee, targeting A or B.
