A friend of mine expressed recently, that basically, there had to be the people, who before major human events, perceived it coming. The sense you describe is something we've talked about amongst ourselves. Its interesting omissions and strange suggestions in news media consumption...even the point that I called it "consumption." And then if you log into youtube with your google account, you only really see the content you chose or what Youtube's algorithms thinks you should watch and ads. Looks like its about ads more than the people. It just seems weird.
Now that you mentioned youtube... I was bored one day and tried to search for an old video. I really wanted to see this video, so I kept on searching and searching, page after page, and obviously couldn't find it. It was almost certainly deleted... But what was more interesting was the results some 60 pages in. It was all playlists from other users after a certain amount of pages. I kept on searching and eventually hit a dead end, and wondered whether or not I really hit all the possible results. It was a semi-popular subject and I'm sure it should have had more results than what I got. I mean, youtube.com/yt/press/statistics.html There has to have been more videos from my subject. So, I searched for "Pokemon", and decided to change the url to jump in a couple of hundred pages in and got this message: I guess that explained it. I wonder if that video I wanted to see WAS on youtube, but youtube decided that from my queries and history it got drowned out in 1000 other results that it thought I would have wanted. I kinda get worried about being filter bubbled and not seeing all the results. I wonder just how much gets ignored. I wonder if there is a video that has been uploaded that no one (aside from the uploader) has any chance of ever seeing because the algorithms always pick other results to show. I wonder if someone can abuse those algorithms to make it so you never see a video. I'm probably overthinking this I'm sure...100 hours of video are uploaded to YouTube every minute
Sorry, YouTube does not serve more than 1000 results for any query. (You asked for results starting from 3300.)
