YouTube's New Moderators MISTAKENLY Pull Right-Wing Channels
The purge is real. Fuck Google, Facebook, Twitter, etc.

So basically they're not denying the outright censorship, they just pissed off a few people who have a little pull. Collateral damage.

Funny how they determine what is fake and what is real isn't it?


YouTube's New Moderators Mistakenly Pull Right-Wing Channels
[link to www.bloomberg.com (secure)]

YouTube’s new moderators, brought in to spot fake, misleading and extreme videos, stumbled in one of their first major tests, mistakenly removing some clips and channels in the midst of a nationwide debate on gun control.

The Google division said in December it would assign more than 10,000 people to moderate content after a year of scandals over fake and inappropriate content on the world’s largest video site.

In the wake of the Feb. 14 school shooting in Parkland, Florida, some YouTube moderators mistakenly removed several videos and some channels from right-wing, pro-gun video producers and outlets.

Some YouTube channels recently complained about their accounts being pulled entirely. On Wednesday, the Outline highlighted accounts, including Titus Frost, that were banned from the video site. Frost tweeted on Wednesday that a survivor of the shooting, David Hogg, is an actor. Jerome Corsi of right-wing conspiracy website Inf0wars said on Tuesday that YouTube had taken down one of his videos and disabled his live stream.

Let's not forget this.

Facebook and Google Struggle to Squelch ‘Crisis Actor’ Posts
[link to www.nytimes.com (secure)]

SAN FRANCISCO — On Wednesday, one week after the school shooting in Parkland, Fla., Facebook and YouTube vowed to crack down on the trolls.

Thousands of posts and videos had popped up on the sites, falsely claiming that survivors of the shooting were paid actors or part of various conspiracy theories. Facebook called the posts “abhorrent.” YouTube, which is owned by Google, said it needed to do better. Both promised to remove the content.

The companies have since aggressively pulled down many posts and videos and reduced the visibility of others. Yet on Friday, spot searches of the sites revealed that the noxious content was far from eradicated.

On Facebook and Instagram, which is owned by Facebook, searches for the hashtag #crisisactor, which accused the Parkland survivors of being actors, turned up hundreds of posts perpetuating the falsehood (though some also criticized the conspiracy theory). Many of the posts had been tweaked ever so slightly — for example, videos had been renamed #propaganda rather than #hoax — to evade automated detection. And on YouTube, while many of the conspiracy videos claiming that the students were actors had been taken down, other videos that claimed the shooting had been a hoax remained rife.

If the Youtube moderators were brought in to spot FAKE videos, why are CNN's videos still up?

Or MSNBC?

Google has too much control over information, communications and FREE SPEECH.

They underestimated the depth and power of alternate media and the ability to communicate TRUTH online. So now they’re directly censoring our ability to communicate TRUTH and expose their lies.

I fear it will actually work.

 Quoting: Ag47


They took down conservative channels, conspiracy channels, gun channels and even airgun channels that had broken absolutely no rules whatsoever. This was not an accident. How do we know this? No Airsoft channels or left wing "opinion" channels were attacked at all. We're supposed to believe they never break the rules? What about Paul?

This was a coordinated effort, period. Maybe some of the people lied to get their jobs as mods at Youtube, or maybe it was a dry run by the execs to see how much pushback the left would get if they went full commie. Time will tell and actions will speak for themselves but trust in Youtube is definitely in the toilet.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 71765019


I was thinking about that age change, there are married people with a least one child and not 21 years old.
That renders them as parents instead as children without adult rights.
They would be over their family and household as non-accountable age parents and spouses.
The would become vulnerable households and families unto other changed out laws, court cases and any accusations.
They may even come to see their child or children taken from them like we see in other nations today.

It is not good at all to strip away the adult age of 18 from our people in anyway.
The most precious things are the simple things in life, always present in the simplest of minds.
