What's with adult profile pics, usernames in YouTube comment section


There are shit tons of comments with adult content profile pic, usernames all over Youtube comment sections. The pics are of women in objectionable clothing, and the usernames are usually related to adult content words.

All the comments seem to be written by actual humans rather than bots. They are quite detailed and always on topic. Eg, If there is a vlog a Youtuber has posted, the comment is in detail about the contents of the blog, Youtuber personality, references to previous videos etc which a bot in current scenario cannot write.

There are some people today who aren't very classy.

Ever since I visited Montréal I started getting women messaging me or calling me on Skype who want to talk French and show me things I don't want to see. I have no idea what they are after, if it is a scam, if they are "sex workers", etc.

Some women post lewd videos to TikTok, it is certainly a way to get a lot of attention quickly but in the long term it is not the attention you want. It's a basic conflict in feminism today that some women have internalized communication norms from pornography and use the rhetoric of "female empowerment" to justify what is bad behavior by any account.

It is one thing to be that way on a site like fetlife where being lewd is the point but even there you find the lady who is lucky enough to be the #1 rated person in your town has it all over her profile that she's furious that she gets so many connection requests from guys and much of the rest of the lewdness is at best an invitation to some behavioral sink like OnlyFans.

Reminds me of this very bizarre thing I found on YouTube.

I was elated when I discovered it's possible to put quiet Noctua fans into a noisy HP ProCurve router: https://youtu.be/UbBtcQg9WF4

What's bizarre are the account's profile picture and name...

I wonder if these accounts get taken over due to a password leak, mass-phishing, or some such. They are then used to post provocative comments that link to related scammy services. Either that, or YouTube simply has a lot of sick-minded people.
