Critical Reviews of Online Content, with occasional Adventures in Fact Checking I'm reviewing the internet, one content creator/influencer/YouTube channel/podcast at a time - to help you know who's worth following, and when to smash that mute button. I'm trying to make this a largely positive project - to platform good people, and encourage civil and constructive debate. I also occasionally do videos for my "TINY LIES" series, which are investigative adventures in fact-checking in this crazy post-truth era we're in. Find more at my YouTube channel, TheInternetReviewed.

Confessions of an Online Ad Actor

We found him!

This is an exclusive interview with "Teddy Reech", aka Scott Curtis - a UGC creator/actor who's done over a thousand ads for social media and online.

He's got quite the story to tell about the job he did for the history app people, who it seems were engaged in an AI footage-farming operation.

Enjoy his insights into this strange corner of the internet. Oh - and his story about doing ads for boner pills on the internet.

Enshittification: AI Apps are just scams and slop

I recently started receiving ads on social media for "educational" history apps. It soon became clear these were almost all just AI-generated junk apps, or outright scams to steal your money.This seems, to me, yet another symptom of the era of enshittification we're in, which is being turbocharged by AI.There seems to be a flood of these AI apps now, so I thought I should warn you about them. Please, if you know of any educational or history apps that are actually good, useful, and not scams, let us know in the comments!

Who Really "Knows" Joe Rogan?

This episode unpacks the podcast that unpacks The Joe Rogan Experience... yes, it gets a bit meta!
