A team of Youtube users/researchers recently announced that they had found some data buried in the source code of the pages for videos on Youtube that expose some of Youtube's approach to restricting or promoting certain videos on their platform. The 'P-Score' and other parameters was clearly visible in the source code of the page UNTIL this information was made public and shortly after Google removed it.
Researchers show that Google has been artificially boosting and restricting videos based on it's own scoring system that does not in any way seem to be being fairly applied.
In this video I go over some of the details and fill in some of the background as to why Google's operations are much less about money or 'protecting people' as they are about their own power gains and other agendas.
Wishing you well,
