Cirque Du Damnit

This youtuber does debunking videos and I recognise some of those from her videos

So the debunking video above led me to watch another debunking video, which started down a very intriguing wormhole of asking why people are producing fake how-to videos like this, and the short version is they’re exploiting algorithms to generate ad revenue and the long version is they’re produced by a Russian content farm that has made some forays into American political ads.

Ann Reardon also has a patreon to help keep her channel running because of this shitty algorithm, PLEASE GO SUPPORT HER WHILE YOU CAN!

Reardon is fighting to raise awareness about this because these channels are killing channels run by real people like herself and other cooking channels. One of her first debunking videos goes into greater detail about it but basically cooking channels are not getting as much profit or are losing money for every video they make because they get buried by the videos from these content farms.

Here are the instructions since people keep asking!
