YouTube announced plans on Wednesday to remove thousands of videos and channels that advocate for neo-Nazism, white supremacy and other bigoted ideologies in an attempt to clean up extremism and hate speech on the service. What about freedom of speech? Because YouTube is a private corporation, these videos are not protected under the First Amendment, so they can pull any videos they want. I support the right for people to be racists and bigots if they so insist upon it. But if a private entity pulls material like this, is it considered censorship?
They’ll just ban all the conservative videos. It’s okay, other sites are now competing with YouTube the big brother.
Yep. There are a LOT of video uploading sites...none as big as youtube but its all gonna come around eventually. Youtube,Twitter,FB eventually will just be leftist echo chambers.
More Nonsense from the NY Times. They absolutely do not cite any specifics. We all know they like to just make stuff up, like CNN.
It's fodder for the easily influenced I guess. I don't know why any critically thinking adult would give any credence to NY Times "reporting" these days.
The problem is that they will selectively enforce this.
Which is their right and their obligation-- to create a product that pleases their stockholders.
