What I think is different is the ability(or will to use that ability) to weaponize it.
Familiar with the bulk spam business model?
Fire off millions of emails, hope for a few dozen hits. The tries don't cost anything, and any hit is a win.
So fire off lots of subliminal messages thru YT thumbnails. Turn it into a 4 panel subliminal meme. Do memes work? Well you only need to 'trigger' some impressionable viewers to generate a news event to suit your needs.
Is YT doing this? I have no idea.
Could they? Im sure they could AND improve on my scenario a million times.
If they could, and they can sell that ability, would they?
Would you? What would your price be? What if they got to your family?
That what I assumed the status quo was for years.
