Can someone in this space explain how this is a hard problem for Youtube to solve? In my limited understanding, I can see clear blockable patterns with the bot posts shown in this video.
It’s more that there is no function that discriminates against a given kind of spam without a false positive rate, and after you implement it, the scammers can just switch techniques to another while now you are continuously dealing with the false positive rate of your method. The attack surface is nearly the entire human language and we’re not good enough yet at understanding if it is a scam in a scalable, automated way, so we have to keep bolting on things with false positive rates that cause support tickets and lower engagement over time. This is an incredibly hard problem.
YouTube has no interest in improving it's UX.....it's only interested in politics.....and spam is on their side...because it increases their side channels.....
Seems like it'd be exceedingly well-suited to an ML model that's tuned by a neverending stream of data (positives, false positives, false negatives, etc). The cat-and-mouse game would still be there, but the "lag time" between shifts in spammer strategies and the model's ability to deal with them would presumably grow increasingly small over time, until eventually it would cease to be worth bothering with for many current spammers.
EDIT: Ah, do you mean for the full data set, at lower request volumes? What hacker/dev price point for all data at low volumes do you think makes sense?
We are getting the following message on our login portal: "Validation Error: Validation failed: There was a problem decrypting the secret. Response status: 400."
At my ISP we offer XGSPON/GPON and we have to use our equipment for the ONT (In our case Adtran). We have adtran specific handshake stuff that we have to manage. Your ISP might offer to just use their ONT and put it in bridged mode so you can use your own router/ap.
There are ONT SFPs that contain everything you need to connect back to the OLT. Maybe you can ask your ISP if that is supported?
A recovering alcoholic can die from "not drinking" -- delirium tremens, the "shakes" that they get in the morning, are a physical manifestation of the transcriptional changes that have occurred in their brains as a result of being adapted to ethanol. The drugs mentioned all modulate neurotransmitters pharmacologically and are often part of the recovery process (the details are quite complex).
I work in fixed wireless and I applaud this guys effort. In my area, Sprint purchased all of our 2.5 Ghz licenses and we had to resort to using the new CBRS band alongside unlicensed frequencies.
