Censorship Has No Party

YouTube admitted to removing videos that document Israel’s human rights abuse. The company told The Intercept that they did this due to the State Department’s sanctions of Palestinian human rights organizations. YouTube reportedly removed more than 700 videos and closed down the channels that hosted them without notice. They included a “documentary featuring mothers surviving Israel’s genocide in Gaza. A video investigation uncovering Israel’s role in the killing of a Palestinian American journalist. Another video revealing Israel’s destruction of Palestinian homes in the occupied West Bank.” Israel has openly discussed censoring American social media to stifle criticism of its government but it was mostly targeted at TikTok and X. Clearly someone is targeting YouTube too. Recently, YouTube admitted to censoring channels during the Biden administration and promised not to do it again. But they are doing it again, this time under pressure from the Trump administration. The post Censorship Has No Party appeared first on Redacted.
