  • Résumé

  • In this episode, we explore the fascinating world of "algospeak," a form of coded language used on social media platforms to evade automated content moderation.


    We'll dive into how and why algospeak emerged, including the need to discuss sensitive topics without facing penalties like shadow banning. You'll discover creative methods used, such as leetspeak and euphemisms, and hear examples like "panini" for pandemic.


    We’ll also discuss the broader implications of algospeak on language evolution, its role in online communities, and how it’s even used for humor and manipulation.


    Tune in for a deep dive into the evolution of digital euphemisms in a world governed by algorithms.
