Previously YouTube incompetently censored discussion of lab leak theory, allowing misinformation to fester on the platform. [1]
YouTube's Trust and Safety team are actively malicious at this point. This was no error. They regularly censor correct information based on the current thinking among the orthodoxy, which I highly suspect is operating in a cartel manner to censor like-minded topics (hence why FB also sloppily censored the same topic).
Don't worry though, YouTube has been awarded a Free Expression Award from an organization sponsored by... YouTube. [2]
