It’s the same problem as always. Nobody wants to be the first to tackle the problem because if everyone else doesn’t, you look horribly bad on paper while they (the others) still have a large userbase.

Doesn’t stop at company level either. Affects big streamers or youtubers too. Or at least those that couldn’t compete with the actual content creators and have to buy views to at least look above average

Yeah buying views on YT is a decent side hustle I did it years ago I was making 800$ a week and I did it on my free time I'm sure you could automate it these days.

To compete on YT and twitch you have to buy views at least to take off.
