Just want to give an important shout out to NYT's podcast "Rabbit Hole," which traces how one person became radicalized by the YouTube algorithm.
The focus of the podcast is on far-right radicalization, but it is important for people who are fall down rabbit-holes in all directions. I listened to it a couple years ago, and it was a fantastic "can't unhear" moment for me which has helped me to stay aware the effects of *any* YouTube rabbit holes on my life an day-to-day worldview - political, tech, spiritual, doomer, accelerationist, masculinity, etc, etc
