curious, but what do you mean by 'damaging content'; Or would it hurt me if you told me?


Well, we have useless content, which might be entertaining but otherwise provide no real benefits to the user, by damaging I mean content that influences people in a negative way(fake news, hate speech, etc). Maybe the right word here is "harmful", but English is not my first language to be 100% sure.


i see, thanks for explaining that. I suppose 'disinformation' would be the most apt word for what you are meaning.
