Right and exactly. My guess is that this phrase has actually been trained into the ML algorithm as a "no-go" by the community (not by direct action from Google) because it's primarily used in contexts where Chinese nationals or national-sympathetics flag it. If the phrase isn't generally used in contexts that don't get flagged, the algorithm would learn quickly that "nobody" wants to see it.

> People outside china might be writing in chinese. Should the CCP be able to regulate speech of all chinese-speaking people globally?

I can see why they would want to do that and I could see why YT would go along with their demands to do so. I didn’t say I agreed with it.
