I'm moreover pointing out that it isn't clear what YouTube would enforce or not - taken simply, there are a lot of YouTube videos that would have been in conflict with this statement on Twitter. Would they have been taken down?
- knzhou 7y agoI will repeat: they said in the early stages that it was too soon to be sure. All the other tweets from this period are saying the same thing: something might be coming, so countries should prepare. So a video saying that people should prepare would not at all be in contradiction. The kind of misinformation that this measure is aimed at is stuff like saying that it's spread by 5G, or that vitamin C or some random herb cures it, or that drinking bleach or rubbing alcohol will kill it. These are all extremely popular online, and have led to actual deaths.
