Just wanna make sure I got this right. "ASS", automatic instant suspension with 0 human review.

"King's Throne: Game of Lust.", with advertised gameplay content such as "I, [the King], shall interrogate this female prisoner privately in my bed chambers", is one of the top advertised games on google play.

Got it.

Yes. This is the current state of "AI" at Google: a faulty regexp that matches "ASS" in "SSA, ASS, TTML" but not, from the issue description, in "(SSA/ASS)".

As an extensive and long-time user of Google Assistant, it's painfully obvious that a large percentage of "NLP" they're supposedly doing is actually regexp/keyword searching.

Maybe Google could partner with a company that has lots of experience parsing language and deriving intent/context? /s

The world we live in is strange. On one hand, it's trivial to find and consume content full of profanity, violence, sex and other things deemed 'inappropriate' yet on the other hand we live in a world where this old George Carlin classic still applies

It’s not just Google, though.

IDK, but maybe the game is marked as mature, while the app is not, and the automated review gave the former a pass in profanity?

I hate the ads for that game so much when I'm watching random crap on Youtube...

I wonder, why people suddenly forgot that adblockers are a thing?

Because they like the channels they watch and want them to get ad revenue?

Do you mean all those channels that have been demonetized and have Patreon accounts?

And if this really is the case then stop complaining about it.

Everyone is well within their rights to want to support creators by tolerating some ads, while simultaneously complaining about ads they do not tolerate.

Not tolerating ads == using adblocker.

And can we please stop turning every discussion, no matter how trivial, into a discussion about rights? Did I say anything that would suggest that I want to take any rights from someone?

regarding watching ads on channels to support them, I'm using an extension called `YouTube Channel Whitelist for uBlock Origin`, which allow to whitelist specific YT channels but also block advertisers.

You can get Premium! Fuck ads, but revenue stays.

Or because they're watching from the YT app?

Yeah, this is the reason for me.

Approved since it doesn't have a naughty word in it. /s

One of those pays ad money to Google.
