👋🏽 there. I can always count on you jumping in to defend Google. 2 distinctions here:
(1) YouTube was driving traffic to RT helping build it. @gchaslot @tristanharris are good on this. nytimes.com/2017/10/23/tec…
(2) Google testified to @SenFeinstein "the algorithm" removed RT. 🤔
One more, (3) on TV, advertisers have full choice when placing ads. On YouTube, how much marketer $ intended for “Google Preferred” News was unknowingly routed to Kremlin arm for much of the year after the Intelligence Report?
Here is video of how Google answered @SenFeinstein under oath. I know from press reports Google’s “algorithm” miraculously dropped RT when WSJ and Bloomberg reported about whether CMOs would care. I guess their algorithms read news websites for risky press coverage. Neat trick.
And I don’t know the 2 people behind Google witness but that was some serious side-eye when he said, “RT qualifies to participate really because of algorithms...an advertising program...it’s objective standards around popularity and some other criteria to participate.”
Just a bit of side-eye but I’m sure it was just “the algorithms.”
