| > The first is a video that was removed from YouTube by the uploader, Only a part of this can be confirmed. Rossman hasn't made a statement yet about why that video was removed but for instance he still links to it from other places. If a video is flagged by YouTube for what ever reason one of the available options is for the publisher to voluntarily remove it to avoid something like a channel strike. Rossman is potentially a victim here but it doesn't mater because the nature of the removal is irrelevant for the system from a technical standpoint. > The second is Twitter blocking a link to a YouTube video that's still up. You didn't look in very much detail. The post I could not make had a link to the same video in BitChute. When it's on BitChute it's harmful but when it's on YouTube it's not. It's the same video content with a different URL! I suspect what happened is BitChute is blacklisted from Twitter completely but I haven't tested it yet. I suppose some how the exact same video is only harmful when it's on BitChute. That makes sense, right? This is the video by the way: https://www.bitchute.com/video/25cQBXfjgpLo/ > YouTube doesn't owe you or anyone else a platform. Are you sure that argument makes sense when you are discussing a thing that is intended to drive people away from YouTube? Does it sound like I think YouTube owes anyone anything? It sounds more like I'm saying 'Watch Less YouTube' which would, at least in my head, be the opposite of thinking YouTube owed anyone anything. > And even so, in no way is their "censorship" hitting a "level of absurdity that is hard to believe". Yeah, it is. https://odysee.com/@MLChristiansen:d/susan-wicky-wicky-brags... |
