I hear what you are saying. But, I KNOW that it’s the top result with the search criteria I suggested… there was no need to sift through anything so your comment is generalised at some other experience.

I’ve already spent a huge amount of my time on that story, being in direct talks with the security researcher before the story exploded - I even helped raise a lot of awareness. So excuse me if I wanted to just quickly mention a quick, no need to sift, route to the info.

(If you happen to see a car on the researchers Twitter running over a Eufy system - that was one of the many things I did for awareness lol).

No, it's aimed specifically at this one.

YouTube's search results vary from person to person. I don't know which video you want me to watch - Paul Moore's five minute one? Den of Tools' eight minute one? Byte of Geek's nine minute one? Something else?

At the very least, since you've got a video in mind, link to it, but text remains a way better medium for this sort of thing.

First one, Paul Moore.

Don’t get me wrong, I know your youtube probably looks different to mine as we probably have differing interests. But I didn’t know Youtube search results varied from person to person - this is news to me.

This has been happening fairly actively since at least 2020, its not just youtube, search results have many of the same issues, and its not a single device, its by person(profile).

They've linked many of your devices together so you will see the same consistent videos/results unless you compare with other people, at places that are not your home location.

Results vary from person to person and probably depend on locale and language.

Even if they didn't saying "it's the top result for ____" STILL isn't helpful. Loads of people make videos designed to rank high for "in" topics. So if it's the top result today it's probably outranked tomorrow by a larger channel.
