I blame social media and algorithms. My teen son for the longest time was leaning further and further right due to the content he was getting served on YouTube. He was making disparaging comments about women and how stupid they are. My wife and I who lean left had to sit down and have a talk with him about what he was saying and videos that he was getting served by YouTube (that popular red pill girl, I can't remember her name and andrew tate among other red pill stuff). He's a pretty smart kid, once we showed him data and articles that directly proved all the things he was watching wrong, he started to come around. He's been careful to believe things that he sees or hears on the internet more now. Occasionally, he'll bring things to us that we have to double take and fact check to see if it's wrong.

Highlander does a good job at highlighting this.

Just listened to that recently. I could see this being a thing.

I also couldn't believe how graphic it was for how old it is.

Lol no joke, all I get is "nice beard" from other dudes.

Which service are you using for this?

Same, the map is just overwhelming.

When is this happening? I've been telling my wife and kid that they need to stop using chrome for a year, but ublock is still working for them and blocking YouTube ads. They are the type that won't switch until it becomes a problem for them.

Probably just trying to bypass the air traffic. You know, like those people that drive in the turning lane then cut over at the light.

My pihole has thousands of blocked requests to

telemetry.gfe.nvidia.com

events.gfe.nvidia.com

And I'll be glad to add whatever else they eventually add.
