I feel like aiding war criminals in deleting evidence should get your company destroyed.
Maybe not all of Alphabet unless we can prove this was an initiative started from the top, but Youtube should be diassembled for one-sidedly purging evidence. Hopefully, those accounts kept offline copies.
People say that the internet never forgets... but they didnt take into account the centralization of the internet and the control they have over the content.
It might be crazy to think this... but imagine in a few years all videos and posts and articles on various sites documenting the genocide were fully purged. Leaving only people's frail memory of events. Even the IDF and Israeli civilians incredibly incriminating videos would be removed, and anyone caught with an archive on a personal device could be criminally charged or have it taken from them for destruction.
Basically this shit is beyond 1984. And I don't use 1984 that often as a metaphor.
This is complicity in genocide.
Does anyone got those videos as a torrent so I can seed them ?
Is there another alternative to YouTube? One that isn't a right wing hellscape?
But they allow far right extremist content.
This is what social networks do, the assholes at the top don't mind erasing accounts and deleting comments when they are inconvenient for them. It is a more effective version of book burning.
In a move that surprises no one, Alphabet Inc rebrands to MINITRUE
Knowing why in these examples is important but it'd be nice to NOT see every big name just lean right this model of government we're struggling with. STOP BEING COMPLICIT WITH ISRAEL. They are acting as terrorists. Anyone who commits those atrocities needs to be exposed, doesnt matter who. This is a humanitarian issue with our whole civilization.
That can't be. Every time I point out that youtube is a HORRIBLE place for people to make the source of record for movements, history, and general archival, and that blogging and text are more durable and necessary for these exact reasons, I get downvoted into oblivion. It must be a problem with reality because video good and video is the future and only reach matters.
Boycott Google
This just tells me that Israel has pedo videos of the decision makers at Google.
It does make me think twice about ever purchasing a google pixel. What another android phone that has good spam call protection or app?
just a friendly reminder that peer.tube exists.
Skimmed the article (yay for reader view) but it doesn't really say WHY the channel was deleted?
I am not in the slightest bit shocked by google bending over backwards to pleasure trump and netanyahu. But this also doesn't seem like their MO. They are usually "good" about explaining what new rule they invented and why that suddenly gave a channel 40 strikes retroactively and I am not seeing that here?
Whereas there are a few mid-size channels that have allegedly been flagged "by AI" as being other bad channels? Which... actually seems more likely since it is less youtube taking an actual stand on anything and more just deciding the ai slop channels that stole footage are the originators and to ban everyone involved.
YouTube has also quietly deleted all the videos of 9/11 first responders who said they heard explosions.
