I know EarlG is testing bot control, so I usually assume any skewing in the DU I see is DU’s internal testing or for EarlG/elad sanctioned studies etc. I take EarlG/elad on the system of trust.

But I hope nothing else that is unacceptable and creepy is also in the mix. A bit wary of the web these days between the rare legit things and totally gratuitous bullshit no one signed up for. This ain’t Facebook. Bullshit emotion manipulation or cryptography or whatever..
With this stuff bleeding into irl turf wars are a given especially under some circumstances.
All the old conflict lines democracy and enlightenment values had secured, above truly trivial bs, should be expected.

I think EarlG mentioned that all that crap is infecting every place. And this lame crap is..something:

https://theshamblog.com/an-ai-agent-published-a-hit-piece-on-me/

This is the first time I have ever used that term, but that guy is a drama queen..🙄. So much for his reputation.
Like a million damn issues and this guy is worried about a truly lame “allegation” made by some moronic agent? But they will never get rid of those things. Those agents are a nuisance. But this is a lame instance.
