An example of an algorithm is how your computer works. You tell it what to do and it utilizes all aspects to complete the job as quickly as possible.

Having your comments, art or videos hidden from view by an automatic process employed by a tech company, often as a result of a form of soft censorship that is built into the algorithm employed by the tech company to suggest or deliver content to a viewer.
Usually the algorithm selects which content to hide based on political or financial interests of the tech company or its internal culture, when it lacks the human resources needed to hide such content.

Half my videos are demonetised and the rest can't be discovered by new people because Youtube has me algorithmed because we talk about things they don't want us to talk about.

A set of steps used to solve a problem. A word primarily used in the fields of mathematics and computer science, but can be applied to almost anything.
Fred: Hey man, find a job yet?
Greg: No man, I developed an algorithm to make some mad cash!
Fred: ...
Greg: Step 1: Obtain a case of beer. Step 2: ??? Step 3: Profit!
Greg: Can't argue with that logic. Beer me.
