To collect truly useful data you'll need to add an option to the menu of each recommended video (where the "Not Interested" option is). 99% of the time I already know the recommendation is of zero interest and won't play the video just so I can register my regret.

I'll watch this with interest. Please save us all from the useless YouTube recommendation system, Mozilla devs!

Thank you firefox for helping prevent the spread of misinformation.

Very useful app to report unrelated, bizarre, untrue youtube recommendations. I was sick of them, thank you Mozilla <3

I think this is a good idea, in spite of the other issues that Firefox could have as a browser. I'm really concerned about the way we are heading as humanity while driven by social networks like youtube or facebook. We need to push back the widespread and harmful rabbit holes where people gets sucked into conspiracy cults.

Too many people say they are being shown content that is seriously harmful as a direct consequence of viewing videos about something else. I'm so glad this research project exists to help fill the transparency gaps of YouTube so we can better understand how their automated recommendations work and hold them accountable.
