In a 30-day period, YouTube pushed 382 real firearms videos to the 9-year-old account that engaged with its recommendations—an average of more than 12 per day. The 14-year-old engagement account was served 1,325 real firearms videos—an average of more than 44 per day.

TTP found that YouTube recommended weapons & shooting videos to all of the accounts, but the “engagement” accounts that clicked on those recommendations got a much higher volume of firearms-related content – sometimes up to 10x more.

TTP researchers created four accounts—two for 9-year-old boys and two for 14-year-old boys. To establish them as gamers, each watched playlists composed entirely of gaming videos. Then, one account from each age group engaged with YT recommendations, while the other didn’t.

“Let’s stop treating the GOP as the party of law and order and treat them, more accurately, as the party of gun violence, of school shootings, of mall massacres... For God’s sake, ban the damn AR-15.” From my @MSNBC opening monologue last night:

🧵 In 2018, my cousin & best friend Alex Schachter was killed by a gunman with an AR15 in Parkland. I am sick & tired of congressional inaction. On June 6th, I will sit-in at the US Capitol to demand a vote to #BanAssaultWeapons. I invite others to join me.

Replying to @FBoversight @Cat_Zakrzewski
Andy Stone's statement clearly demonstrates Facebook's disregard for the rule of law. For years, the company has viewed itself as above the law and uses its influence machine to work actively against real policy reform. But attacking the Chair of the FTC and calling this a "political stunt" is a new low, even for Facebook.

Elon Musk has lost over $750 million for Twitter by scaring away over half of its top 100 advertisers by rolling back community and brand safety standards. But he's gained approximately 140,000 Twitter Blue subscribers, generating only about $13 million.
