What does AI do to freedom of speech?

I just realised, that YouTube has an AI system which removes comments on my channel, that it deems "potentially inappropriate".

Some clearly illegal comments prove that moderation is necessary — I even found a couple of death threats. But there is A TON of false positives.

Attached are four examples of comments which the AI removed. There are hundreds of these, and it really bothers me, that someone's legal free speech is suppressed by our AI overlords.

@RusselKnight1066 3 Weeks Ago The reason why Trump is pandering to Putin is that The Russian dictator has compromising videos of him being peed on by Russian whores in 1987 in an Intourist hotel.@MynameisInigoMontoya4 9 days ago 8:54 Thank you for calling out the pussies at the BBC, but I am willing to bet that this was somehow encouraged by the British government and/or Monarchy to maintain positive relationships with the leader of America. @brianshirling5515 2 weeks ago Trump is a goofy old queen. Every time I see him talk, I see an old hag with a bad wig and shitty makeup. Even his decorating style is that of an old woman. He is a pathetic, old, snowflake queen. How in the hell does anybody look at him and see a leader? @aidanyelsma7762 3 weeks ago Once he dies of another stroke, the Republican party won't be able to decide who to make the next top cunt.

……不行，停不下来
我看到几个伊朗人的IG账号，其中有一个年轻女生，可能在欧洲，学生，妆容精致，漂亮的尖头鞋，美食，日落灯，在旅行时的镜头里微笑
但一切都在12月底戛然而止。她前一条post还是漂亮的小圣诞树，下一条开始，每一条，都是，伊朗，奔跑的人群，横幅，呼吁关注，打印传单，文宣海报，英文的一篇一篇的解释和呼吁，愤怒

政治抑郁是什么。政治抑郁是你发现某个位高权重的傻叉轻轻一覆手就能够让你的生活被冲毁坍塌。你出走异乡，熟练使用另一门语言，你以为不会变的和其他人一样的普通早晨，其实不会变的只有日出。身后的影子追你，但你面前只有升起的太阳。你只有太阳。

You don't need superspy-level OPSEC in order to protest fascism. But protest does involve risk. My goal when I teach people about digital privacy/security is to make sure that people understand what risks they're taking so they can make appropriate mitigations while still accomplishing their goals.

haben mich einen Großteil meines Lebens begleitet und egal wie trendy sie waren, ich habe sie immer geliebt. Leider habe ich sie viel zu selten live gesehen, zuletzt auf ihrer Abschiedstour in . Aber versteht irgendjemand, warum immer noch Platten erscheinen? & die anderen sollten doch genug Kohle haben, um nicht jede Kuh melken zu müssen?

Pressure on Senators •is working•. Previously head-in-sand centrist Senators are actually coming out to vote against ICE funding. Their positions are still weak and insufficient, and more need to cave to pressure — but they are visibly buckling.

Again, we should not and must not wait on elected officials to save us — they will not — but we can and should deploy pressure on them as a strategic tool in moments when that can be useful.

Now is such a moment. KEEP IT UP.

My message to Senators:

❝The correct amount of funding for not just ICE but the •entire Department of Homeland Security• is zero. ZERO. You heard me: the entire agency. Under current leadership, it is off the rails. It is dangerous. It it a menace.

“More training” is a pathetic non-answer; that just means more money. These murderers are trained; they are just monsters. Don’t say “better oversight.” Don’t say “more reforms.” Pull the rug. Switch it off. • Shut • it • down • NOW •

If you have to shut down every airport in the country because the TSA budget is in there too, then you shut down every damned airport in the country. If you have to shut down the federal government again, you shut it down. Your inaction is sleepwalking the country into civil war. SHUT. IT. DOWN.❞

"Rather than inserting logical bugs, adversaries can attack the encoding of source code files to inject vulnerabilities.

These adversarial encodings produce no visual artifacts.

The trick is to use Unicode control characters to reorder tokens in source code at the encoding level."

Something I noticed lately is people having at least separate sections on their website if not a separate site entirely to split blog posts/articles from short thoughts/social media posts. Do people like that for the separate RSS feeds so you can ignore the short stuff? Hate it because now it's 2 feeds to follow if you wants everything from someone? Don't care since it all just funnels into a single place here and you don't use RSS feeds?
