You get recommendations on Youtube based off of what you watch. You watch a lot of Ben Shapiro and political shit? Abby's videos will probably come up.
Oh, and I totally wood.

So you made a thread about an anecdote of getting a bunch of chick Shapiro videos on your YouTube homepage?
Isn’t that like, what you complain about right wing posters doing? Seeing boogeymen everywhere? Sure you didn’t stumble into one, click it to see if she was anything like her brother, and now YouTube figures you’ll give more overall video views if they offer more lady Shapiro videos to you?

I'm not the one complaining. Users all over the internet have been complaining.
I didn't watch any of her videos till today. I saw someone mention it and decided to dig through her channel a bit and it's pretty obvious dude.
I actually didn't get any ads from her myself, but apparently youtube viewers have been getting her content forced into their front page and as ads.

That first bit there is Ripskateresque “I’m not saying it, but other people are saying....”
Congrats on your outrage porn. Of someone using their last name to get an easy job. There’s a lot where that came from.

So stop watching her.
Abby Shapiro, the sister of conservative talking head Ben Shapiro, has recently made her entrance into social media starting her own YouTube channel sometime last year. Originally it was all pretty benign stuff like beauty tips, etc. But recently this summer she made a big pivot into conservative politics and her videos simultaneously started appearing on everyone's front page.
The reason I bring this up is because it seems like the rise of her channel directly contradicts the conservative narrative that is championed by so many great ring wing intellectuals on this forum. That being conservative voices are intentionally suppressed by groups like YouTube.
Turns out the direct opposite is taking place. YouTube is forcing Abby Shapiro down our throats by altering their front page algorithms thanks to large amounts of cash from her big brother. Despite having at the time having a measly 30-40,000 followers she was consistently appearing on the front page for weeks. Many people are claiming that they're specifically reporting or choosing to ignore her channel but are still getting her videos forced into their front page.
A quick look at her video page and the trend is obvious. The majority of her videos get less than 30K, or even less than 10K views, but certain videos, the ones forced on us, have exponentially more. (And fuck loads of dislikes)
Despite the majority of her videos getting disliked at a rate of 2:1 or more, the videos still appeared in front pages of millions of users for weeks.
What's everyone think of this?
Some examples.
Now this is the video release directly before the one above.

Imagine thinking this is only applicable to the right wing.
As to the OP, she should zoom out and get those marvelous jugs in every shot of her podcasts. I'd be more likely to watch and condone the exposure thereafter.

I'm not watching her. I didn't even know she had an account till this morning.
The point I'm making her is the Youtube forced her into people's front page despite her not having the typical statistics for that to occur.

Those algorithms are based on your search history. Probably why you're complaining and most of us didn't know Ben had a sister... J.S.

Where is my outrage?
I don't really give a shit like that I just thought it was interesting how youtube seems to be altering their algorithm in a way that contradicts the narrative common in this subforum.

So ignore her.
If you read the thread, people specifically ignored her and they still got her videos in their front page.

In the case it doesn't seem to be based on search history. It seems Youtube forced her into the front page as a matter of paid promotion.
