#2That's all very well but perhaps they should also stop deleting Russian opposition videos/channels and justify that by claiming they contain extremist content when there is none. #FixRussianYoutube - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DZwAVsAgsLQ&t=190s

#4And who will decide what is "Extremist Videos"?
This is a dangerous game YT plays now. Who will decide who is a freedom fighter and who is an extremist? Who is good and who is bad?

I also wonder if any religious video of any faith that calls for beating one's wife,inequality between men and women, death for non believers and homosexuals, antisemitism or female genital mutilation will also be counted as extremist video.

I hope all videos advocating violence are included.

Yes, any religious video as such should absolutely be counted. Feel free to start flagging them with your brave throwaway account:

Even if the video calls for none of those, you mean?
Of course, like you, I would quite like to see all Christian videos banned, but I'm afraid it might set a precedent.

For the moment the "reagan meets the taliban" search still points to the right, non-brain-washing videos (https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=reagan++meets+t...), so on this front we are safe.
On a more serious note, who ever thought this might be a good idea? Censorship never works in this sort of cases, it never has. All it does is it adds legitimacy to fringe beliefs. I for example still think that if it hadn't been for the martyrdoms and censorship they had to suffer early on the Christians and their sect would have had never gained such a following.

#10Which also means journalists won't be able to access those videos as sources. Although, I'm not ready to call that a bad decision, because propaganda is indeed the biggest problem with ISIS.
This is just treating the symptom, obviously (why do young people ever consider joining a terrorist group? Certainly not through youtube videos as the only factor), but also treating the symptom is ok if we try to solve the deeper problem at the same time (unemployment? defiance resulting from corruption?).
