has revealed the double-meaning of mundane sentences, like “touch the ceiling,” used to coax young girls into flashing their followers and showing off their bodies.
For instance, Telus does not clamp down on algospeak around high stakes political or social moments, Hanna said, citing “camping” as one example. The company declined to say if any of its clients have banned certain algospeak terms. New forms of algospeak also emerged on social media around the Ukraine-Russia war, Hanna said, with posters using the term “unalive,” for example—rather than mentioning “killed” and “soldiers” in the same sentence—to evade AI detection. And on gaming platforms, she added, algospeak is frequently embedded in usernames or “gamertags” as political statements. One example: numerical references to “6/4,” the anniversary of the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre in Beijing.
