miskYouTube starts mass takedowns of videos promoting ‘harmful or ineffective’ cancer cures
Oh hey, YouTube has a mechanism for that! Simply down-vote the video, and any future viewers will know that the video is likely ineffective because of the very visible down-vote count that Google didn’t remove to make more money from advertisements. They didn’t remove it because they value cancer patients more than money. Good on them.
AppoxoDon’t forget the rewind.
You mean this one? With 3.8M up-votes?? www.youtube.com/watch?v=YbJOTdZBX1g

While that would be great, in reality because of YouTube’s recommendations, the ones most likely to watch this crap are the ones already drinking the kool-aid and thus upvoting.
How time passes. This was not the case when down-votes were there.
HamartiogonicPeople who believe in dumb idiot BS treatments tend to watch and like those kinds of videos too. Downvoting those videos might not be very effective because of the number of true believers watching them.
