视频分享平台YouTube早前被指监管不力，任由涉及暴力和其他不当内容伪装成儿童影片，并获系统推荐播放，对儿童造成不良影响。YouTube已宣布将限制该类影片播放，呼吁用户举报。

YouTube has been accused of “infrastructural violence” against children due to its role in the creation of vast quantities of low-quality, disturbing content aimed at pre-schoolers.

YouTube遭指控对儿童实行“基底暴力”，因其创建作用导致出现大量针对学前儿童的低质和不当内容影片。

James Bridle, a campaigning technology-focused artist and writer, documented the way the video platform’s algorithmic curation drives enormous amounts of viewers to content made purely to satisfy those algorithms as closely as possible.

一名以运动技术为主的艺术家兼作家占士布里德记录了视频平台的演算法，指出驱使大量观众观看制定内容纯粹是为了尽可能达到演算法的满意数字。

“What we’re talking about is very young children, effectively from birth, being deliberately targeted with content which will traumatise and disturb them, via networks which are extremely vulnerable to exactly this form of abuse.”

我们所说的是年纪很轻、离出生期很近的儿童，他们成为了这些不当内容的目标，而且通过网络非常容易受到这种形式的虐待。

“It’s not about trolls, but about a kind of violence inherent in the combination of digital systems and capitalist incentives.”

这不是“引战贴”，而是关于数码系统和资本主义激励相结合的一种内在暴力。

“This, I think, is my point: The system is complicit in the abuse.”

这个，我想就是我的重点：该系统是施虐的同谋。
