Social media censorship roundup

The Nerd City video worked out that the algorithms are being trained by offshore workers in third world countries.

Such as this one, I'm betting:

The automatic ban survived a manual appeals process, which means it was reviewed by a human reviewer and judged to be in Violation of the YouTube Community Guidelines.

Once the ban is human-reviewed, it's more permanent and will be used by the algorithm going forward.

Some human, possibly ESL, from a different culture...

ESL = English as a Second Language, had to Google it, too many abbreviations and acronyms.
