Banned Russian propaganda websites#66

There’s a concerningly high amount of Russian propaganda suggested by Scour, especially when you have subscribed to the interest “geopolitics”. Some of which, in particular Russian state own propaganda outlet RT.com, are banned in all of the European Union. Downvoting doesn’t stop them from being suggested and there’s also no way to block such domains. TBH I find it rather strange that your algorithm keeps suggesting this crap at such high frequency, is it possible that it is manipulated in some way?

Thanks for reporting this. I’ll work on this right away.

I added a domain blocklist to filter out content from websites that host malware and fake news (along with porn and gambling). That should exclude this type of content. Let me know if you run into any more of that in the future.

Thanks again for reporting this issue.

I just added the ability to flag posts so if you see any other propaganda being pushed, please flag it!
