I keep getting comments on public entries at LJ, and all they just links to weird youtube videos in foreign languages that look like news footage from 1985. I don't understand what the spammers are intending to accomplish with this.

That is puzzling. I don't understand the appeal of just leaving a link in a journal of someone you don't know. I can understand the ones that are trying to sell you something, but links to youtube videos...that's just strange.

A friend said she saw a discussion on Journalfen about how they are political videos from a foreign country. Which still seems pretty stupid, but at least makes a thread of sense.

Most of the spam I've ever gotten on LJ has been pretty bizarre and pointless, with no commercial basis I could discern.
