Recently I have discovered that google has nuked hundreds of North Korean videos. This upsets me as needless destruction of the historical record. I wonder how people would feel if something like google was around after world war II and censored hundreds of videos of nazi atrocities. It is wrong for a public forum like Youtube or public resource like google drive to restrict content based on subject matter with very few limited exceptions. All political and war footage should be free from restriction.

Stimme Koreas is now gone too.

I am sure that academic and even possibly open source intelligence researchers are similarly frustrated assuming they did not all download the videos many of which had been on the platform for many years.
