WWWEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLL:
It says "Possible Clickbait" on a site that's absolutely true and factual with basically any and every questioned answered along with rock solid evidence, it must work by ----well look I may be stoned but I know there aren't any REALLY quick people actually watching and reading what you type in. ----so yes, algorithm or what deez nuts have you. Only thing is some people will actually believe it is click bait or whatever cool but not cleaver word some programmers taped away from the keyboard and into to the "var/s" Hall of Fame, as it graces the cyber world before ya know it and they see it, and believe lies, against the truth, and not find out for themselves with a trusted and or accredited source or their own eyes and ears.
