Youtube was already pervasively censored and editorialized / moderated. If you are using Youtube, it's important to be aware of its role as the arbiter of what's allowed and how discourse is directed.
But of course most Youtube hogwash content producers and their followers aren't in it for the love of truth or philosophy. Maybe some of the more naive are, and have been fooled to be puppets in Youtube's strings.
- minot 6y agoI have a screencast of installing Debian that’s unlisted and has one view uploaded several years ago and last month I got an email saying YouTube had decided, after a review, that it is only suitable for mature audiences. I don’t know who flagged it or who reviewed it but there’s no video, only a screen share of Debian installation and there’s no audio. I think YouTube just counts on people appealing wrongful flags. I no longer believe YouTube is more malicious than it is incompetent.
