    I accidentally saw a youtube ad today. It was a fake product with ai video and voice over. Complete scam. It was several minutes unskippable so i assume that’s expensive. They must be hoping to scam a lot of people. I had no idea it had gotten so bad.

      The majority of the YouTube ads I get are for dick pills. I’m a 50 year old woman who watches critical role, videos on curly hair and chunky blanket knitting. Their algorithm sucks.
