    If anyone wants to see the video: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=dHKhYL3is5o" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=dHKhYL3is5o

    He did harass them a bit. I&#x27;m looking forward to Meta taking down all videos where someone is a bit harassed. Internet will be a much nicer place!

      Everyone keeps saying he is dutch but he was speaking a different language in the video thanks to automatic youtube dubbing. I was quite confused because not everything was even dubbed correctly. Also its an auto dubbing through AI. Didn&#x27;t realize it got automatically selected. So annoying.

      Realized too late into the video that I had to switch to original track

        He&#x27;s speaking Dutch and speaking English with a very very heavy west-Netherlands accent. Quite a lot of the Meta employees there can&#x27;t speak Dutch which is why he switches to English.

          I think I should have worded my comment differently. I did not mean the guy does not speak dutch, the video was not playing in dutch because of that shitty auto dubbing of youtube.

            Yeah I saw that after posting. I have the same issue, and I&#x27;m fluent in Dutch.
