Public Pulse
How Bangladesh is reacting to what goes viral. The comment sections of the most-watched Bangladeshi YouTube videos and TV newsroom uploads are read and summarised: mood, emotions, attitude to the authorities, and warning signs such as calls for mob justice. Only the crowd is described. No commenter names, handles or quotes are stored.

Topics where commenters discuss the police, government, courts or officials, by the crowd's overall attitude.
Nothing yet.
Topics whose comments show the signal in several places. A flag describes the comment section, not the video or its publisher.
Method: videos come from YouTube's trending chart for Bangladesh and the uploads of major TV newsrooms, ranked by views and comments per hour. Up to 200 top comments per video are read by an AI model, which reports shares and paraphrases only. Comment sections are not a representative sample of the public: they over-represent people who are online, young and angry enough to write. Treat this as a signal of what is being said, not of what the country thinks.
