Previously: Fire at Notre Dame cathedral
UPDATE: Ryan Broderick points out the plain fact: YouTube's little truth widget is algorithmically-generated fake news.

I'm not sure there's a better metaphor for the state of the tech industry right now than an American social platform slapping an algorithmically-generated related article about an American terror attack on to a live stream about a completely unrelated French news story. pic.twitter.com/KLWGlg5NEc
