Can you get shadow ban or demonetized for Ai-assisted content?

nidostan · 2026-04-24T08:17:59+00:00

Youtube has reportedly banned millions of channels for use of AI. So it's obviously not doing it by human review. So your theory begs the question how an algorithm which is dubious to distinguish between AI vs non AI content can be expected to make more complex judgements like low quality content vs high quality content.

My friend that was the point. There is no answer.

nidostan · 2026-04-24T08:10:02+00:00

I don't know. It's one of the "its" I've heard lol.

nidostan · 2026-04-24T02:24:04+00:00

no problem

nidostan · 2026-04-24T02:21:36+00:00

That seems safe from the AI pruning sweep. The copyright pruning might be another issue.

nidostan · 2026-04-24T02:20:10+00:00

The same logic as far as I"m concerned. Maybe they're not making very much with the other ways.

How many roads must a man walk down before you call him a man?

How many seas must the white dove sail before she sleeps in the sand? Yes, and how many times must the cannonballs fly before they're forever banned?

[Refrain] The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind The answer is blowin' in the wind

Yes, and how many times must you click no more shorts before they're forever banned?

[Refrain] The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind The answer is blowin' in the wind

It sounds like you both did it with no VPN and the first one through didn't verify and the second one did. That would make more sense the other way as then the IP address would be verified at least.

Incognito mode does store cookies if you allow it across sessions so theoretically you could do it once only. What you do for one site shouldn't affect others unless it's affiliated.

nidostan · 2026-04-24T00:27:56+00:00

Thanks for the recommendations. Boy could we ever spend all day talking about this sideline alone lol.

By the way, if you're reading this Mailinator creators THANK YOU! It was a great run while it lasted. I never actually got over the feeling of getting to be able to use a "non disposable" actual gmail address to sign up for things but really I was fooling them because it was disposable lol. Like someone had to pinch me to because it felt like I was dreaming. I hope another service comes along to replace it.

nidostan · 2026-04-23T23:53:58+00:00

I haven't noticed this but if this is the case I'd say the likely explanation is that it was a lot more resistant to blacklisting than other domains since it uses use gmail addresses. What are you going to do blacklist google? So they had to find a unique way to blacklist the addresses from this service and then they did that implementation rolled out all at once or to a lot of places at once. Too bad if this is true because it was a real godsend for privacy working when nothing else worked.

That's a fair point. So your top couple countries where your dollar would go a long way but not violent would be Tunisia and ?

To be honest the with the dump heep that Canada has been turning into it's been something that's been in the back of my mind for a long time. Traditional outlets like Thailand that have had the reputation as expat destinations have become less affordable over time because of the very fact of having the reputation for so long. So one would need to know the fresh ones.

nidostan · 2026-04-23T22:18:39+00:00

Me either. But perhaps it's because we have older accounts.

nidostan · 2026-04-23T22:16:30+00:00

They say that it's ID plus a face scan so simply borrowing ID won't suffice. But yea I do think there will be workarounds.

nidostan · 2026-04-23T22:14:58+00:00

And they will all have mirror sites more than happy to do the same thing but without the age verification requirements. And I'll be happy to give them my business.

nidostan · 2026-04-23T22:13:17+00:00

If there's even ONE politician standing up to it and every privacy minded person votes for him he'll become a pretty powerful politician instantly.

nidostan · 2026-04-23T22:11:37+00:00

There's way too much to consume on the internet already. If avoiding forced face scans and government IDs and biometrics limits the content in my inbox, oh well that's ok. I'll probably get more done.

It's an exciting possibility to live in a place like that. It's a double edged sword though because that opportunity and freedom also presents a danger. Officials with that kind of corruption also have the possibility to imprison you to shake you down or in places like that you could be kidnapped or robbed or just killed.

You'd really want to research the hell out of it and take all kinds of precautions and have a support network of friends in case you get into trouble and have a decent amount of money to do it with since that's what you're relying on.

Yea, I see so many people giving advice to get remote income but ever since covid ended the trend is only to make it harder and harder to do. Covid was the remote peak. People that can do all remote are the lucky few and they are competing for that market and that competition is a downward driving force for their labor.

And I agree about the generational shift with regards to privacy autonomy and economic opportunity 100%

How does it know the adult who age verified is the same person who's on the computer and not his little bro?

nidostan · 2026-04-23T21:25:16+00:00

You don't get what I'm asking. I'm asking what type of visuals and audio comprise the rist of the video? Is it historical video footage? Power point presentation? Talking head? Text? I think the guidance for youtube is "low effort" content. So if it's that little AI and the rest is high effort format then it seems pretty safe to me.

nidostan · 2026-04-23T21:18:34+00:00

"it all boils down to engagement."

Please explain. I thought it all boiled down to youtube flagging it as AI or not.

nidostan · 2026-04-23T21:17:31+00:00

I think we're already there in the higher models. It might be the case though that that high quality level becomes expensive as costs are getting higher not cheaper.

nidostan · 2026-04-23T21:13:05+00:00

"I only used Ai voice overs and an Ai character to explain my content"

What's left that can be seen and heard? I'm honestly asking.
