By corporate culture I mean like what you see with Google~YouTube/Meta~Facebook/etc. to accommodate advertisers and influence people to engage and acknowledge adverts. In turn, by adapt/adjust I mean how some people bleep curses out like fuck/shit/etc., say unalive instead of commit suicide/kill oneself, and make notorious video thumbnails that supposedly work to drive up views.

History Youtube gets pretty whack about this because Google's adsense algorithm freaks out when words like "Nazi" and "Stalin" appear. To name a few examples:

The second example is particularly amusing, being a video about how Shostakovich circumvented soviet censorship while self-censoring all instances of "Stalin" within the script.
