Re: YouTube Suspends Trump’s Account
#2Anyone know what video(s) was removed?
That's my problem with this type of censorship - now I want to know what was so bad YouTube felt the need to remove it. If it's that bad and was said by the President, it seems like it may be something I should know, but now I can't easily know. Why do tech companies get to decide what information the average person can or can't easily see? Part of the blame is on Trump for posting all this stuff on these websites instead of somewhere like whitehouse.gov.
Let's say he hypothetically called on his supporters to commit a terrorist attack at the inauguration. Now Youtube is putting anyone who attends the inauguration in danger, because they are withholding information from them.

To be precise if you don't know what the tweets were (I don't either) then shouldn't you say 'that have been alleged to lead to the riots'. This is nothing to do with lending support to him or not.

Or it is just a opinion manipulation, I wouldn't trust Google one bit.

Trump did not incite violence.

Because it's their platforms and in this case YouTube (Google) is a private company. So they can do whatever they like.
While they're continue to de-platform, they should update their about page a bit: [0]

Google is a private company, so don't you dare to criticize them.

Apparently gab mirrored his entire Twitter feed.
