I noticed a pattern. So many comments have that same emoji spam pattern, even if they seem different. Something seemed off for a while now.

No idea what you are talking about π π₯Ί π
How long until the Internet is so full of bots and AI spam that it becomes impossible to even find our fellow humans amid the noise?

Im so impressed by your dedication to your content. You are a shining light on this content creative platform. Can we all just appreciate content creator for his hard work?

Oh wow, I was like "interesting, haven't seen these" seeing the three emojis and stuff on yours
However
To test the theory, I (a car nut) went to one of the biggest automotive YouTubers, Mat Armstrong, who's currently rebuilding his dad's dream car and released the last video 2 days ago.
Two comments, different profile, same profile pic that, zoomed out enough, looks like a vagina. Go on the profile and they both look like this:
NSFW WARNING
spoiler
Rest assured, there was no bikini bottom, I just cropped that out
I usually see the naked ass with a stolen comment. Right click, report. You'd think YouTube would figure out how to auto-filter these, but nope.
And this is because it works. Horny men see the minuscule thumbnail: "OMG it's a hot woman!", then click it, see the link in the profile, and get scammed.
Thank you for posting legitimate content!
It has a very human design.
Wait, shit, Iβm not in /c/funhole.
Well, fuckinβ bots, am I right?
fake. missing the 3 emojis at the end
The worst is when you see a low sub count channel owner respond with the sincerest gratitude, like it really made their day to get such a supportive comment. I never have the heart to tell them, but I do try to leave an actual supportive comment of my own to sort of balance it out
You know they're fake because real YouTube commentors only have two modes:
"Who's watching in 2025" and "No one: Not a single soul:"
Don't worry, sometimes the bots do that first one and use some future year like 2036 to farm engagement.
Yes
My man!
Looking good!
Slow down!

The bot is coming from inside the house
Am I the only one who has assumed any account using the format "Firstname LastName" since the early 2000's is a bot, because real people generally make creative usernames?
I know it doesn't exactly work in the age of Twitter, where so many people were never taught basic online safety guidelines, which included NOT USING YOUR REAL GOD DAMN NAME, but old habits die hard.
These are all almost names in the same way. It makes me wonder if theyβre variants in a language Iβve never seen before or (imo more likely) someone prompted ai for womenβs usernames and it got confused by the cutesy ways people used to augment their names for usernames.
There's a counterpoint to that. In real hard truth, nobody is anonymous and creative handles can be traced back to a name easily.
But having pseudonyms affects human psychology. And makes people post things they wouldn't want to be traced to them. And do things.
There was a time when it seemed that everything is insecure. That time didn't end. Just with HTTPS everywhere and encrypted everything and with glossy appearances people have genuinely lost all understanding of the real world.
They think, metaphorically, that if there's no name written on their door, everyone who asks can't learn who they are.
I've had my Google account for over a decade. At some point, I noticed my YouTube handle was just my name, and I don't remember setting it to that.
On pretty much all websites, I have a default username I try to use, but I don't remember getting that option when making a Google account
At some point YouTube tried to force you to use your real name.

Google defaults new accounts to use the name they use for their email account unless you make a "brand account" IIRC which is actually fucking stupid

Fascinated by your interesting content! I am grateful for your creativity! ππ»π€
This is so wholesome and original, totally made my day!
Honestly, your comment made it even better.
I post very little on insta and Iβve still had to block a half-dozen LLM slop accounts after they commented word slurry on photos I posted.
I love that each has three emojis, and most of them make no sense.
I am fascinated by the creativity of this comment section. Great work!!! π«ππ€
Such fantastic content! Your posts consistently provide value and I'm always excited to see what you'll share next. π¦π©π
