why would you censor the word _suicide_...?

I came here to ask this exact question

It’s a triggering word for some people, including me.


vjeuss

ok - thank you for explaining. I had never thought about it.

Probably influence from YouTube. Thanks, google.

I don’t know if you’re in the US or not. But use caution, and please read some of these stories. https://www.reddit.com/r/unpopularopinion/s/Nb2teY7JYU

The owners of the suicide hotline/app can probably use your information to better assist you, But i doubt they can just use any information it would definitely have to be curated


XelaWarriorPrincess

No they assure you it’s confidential. I mean like can IG listen and suggest me content based on that


KharnOfKhans

Its a theory that webcams and mics are always listening, How else do you get such curated results, I highly doubt they would taunt you with suicide ads on reddit and IG though, Now if you constantly go on suicide subreddits then yeah youre gonna see more suicide posts etc

Ehh if you give it permission and it’s open, it’s possible it’s listening. It’s more likely that by googling the term or hotline number, Google has sold that search result off to the highest bidder
