YouTube kills 5 times more videos, channels as Christians allege persecution
September 5, 2019 (LifeSiteNews) — YouTube has quintupled the number of “hate” videos and channels removed from the platform, the website announced this week.
YouTube removed more than 100,000 videos and over 17,000 channels for violating its “hate” speech policy from April through June, CNN reports, five times the number it had removed in the three months prior. YouTube also took down over 500 million comments due to “hate speech.”
In a Tuesday blog post, YouTube ascribed the increase in removals from the platform to its recent efforts to counter the spread of hate content.
The announcement of YouTube’s fivefold increase in the volume of content removal comes amid continued criticism that the platform and other tech companies act to suppress speech by conservatives, Christians, and pro-life supporters, at times attempting to conflate conservatives with objectionable groups by assigning the speech or content of the former defamatory labels like “hate.”
At the same time, the left continues to criticize YouTube for allowing “misinformation,” “conspiracy theories,” and “extremist views” to spread on its site, and for any sort of recommendation of such content.
YouTube, owned by Google, announced in June it was expanding its policy to ban “supremacist” content and remove videos denying well documented violent events, such as the Holocaust and the 2012 mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School.
The company had said in June it would be removing hundreds of thousands of videos that previously had not been considered in violation of its policy.
YouTube’s recently updated policy bans “videos alleging that a group is superior in order to justify discrimination, segregation or exclusion based on qualities like age, gender, race, caste, religion, sexual orientation or veteran status.”
The platform said as well it’s been able to take down more “objectionable” content before it was widely viewed, resulting in an 80% decrease in views on content later removed for violating YouTube’s rules.
