Many people have claimed that the Youtube algorithm is broken. Some people say that politicians got elected because their campaigns abused data in order to influence voters, Facebook was involved with privacy issues and there are more examples where data and unclear algorithms raised questions.
To show that the Youtube algorithm is rigged and can be used to influence people in unethical ways, a Youtube channel can be created with the goal to reach 1 million subscribers, within 1 month, without posting valuable content.
Our personal opinions regarding politics or privacy issues is not relevant, it is not my intention to start a discussion about that. I just want to post this random idea I came up with and would like to hear your opinions.
TLDR: read the title.
