In his report on conspiracy, Collins pointed out that YouTube's search string "Stephen Spielberg" is also attracted to QAnon video. Search results of Mexican company Cemex cited by QAnon believers will also be affected

This is not the first time that conspiracy theorists used YouTube's search algorithm. After shooting in Las Vegas, Florida and Parkland, the video advertising right - wing theory became the top of the platform search results.

However, as the latest issue shows, there are still many things to do. A YouTube spokeswoman said to BuzzFeed News:

When searching for "Tom Hanks" on YouTube on Monday morning, Hanks was a pedophile, and several videos claiming that it was made public by users such as "End Time News" were produced. Do not worry, they are not genuine. However, due to the conspiracy theorists known as QAnon, Ben Collins of NBC News pointed out that dozens of viewpoint end videos are not usually cracked to make it the top of the result. This is clearly an unknown person who has advanced information of the government and has published the "survey result" of the right wing online from September last year. It has turned into a comprehensive conspiracy and followers believe Robert Muller's special advisor is actually investigating Hillary Clinton and believers believe that Hollywood liberalists destroy the world according to the daily beast I intend on doing it. QAnoners has entered Washington, DC with a rank including Roseanne Barr and is now sufficient to affect the YouTube search algorithm.
