YouTube Radicalization is a Myth with Mark Ledwich

- It's widely believed the UA-cam algorithm radicalizes viewers but Mark's research puts this theory to rest. Researcher and longtime member of the Other Life community, Mark Ledwich, has been studying the UA-cam algorithm independently for several years. His research has been published in academic journals and now on a public website called transparency.tube. He joins the podcast to discuss how the UA-cam algorithm really works, what everyone is getting wrong, and why it matters. He also comes to pick a bone with my position on shoplifting from self-checkout kiosks.
Check out Mark's research at transparency.tube.

36:09 Justin your shoplifting ethic is contradictory. You said you stole from them as revenge, but also said they are not impacted by it. Both these things can't be true
Great interview. Interesting guest and great questions. Thanks!
Being a thief doesn't become acceptable because it's revenge lmao jfc
ok
Seems like a cool guy. He has Elon Musk accent, is that a tech thing?
He has an Australian accent and Musk has a mild South African accent. They may sound the same to Americans but not to the rest of the world
