    Default YouTube admits it censored 8 MILLION videos last quarter.

    Don't post videos about affirmative action or the huge black/white achievement gap or ones that say anything good about trump

    april 23 2018 (Update: YouTube has published a blog post with more complete numbers. It says it pulled down more than 8 million videos in the quarter — “mostly spam or people attempting to upload adult content,” and that 6.7 million were flagged by computers first. It also says it is getting better at finding videos with “violent extremism”: At the beginning of 2017, 8 percent of the videos with that content were taken down before they got to 10 views. “Now more than half of the videos we remove for violent extremism have fewer than 10 views.”)

    Context: YouTube has spent the past year responding to complaints about problematic (or worse) videos on the site. Sometimes it has argued that offensive videos — or, at least, offensive videos running alongside advertising — are a “tiny, tiny” problem; at other times, it says it is taking it so seriously that it will have more than 10,000 people working on the problem this year.

    Who cares? It's their prerogative to censor what they want, especially if it violates their standards, or is material like making homemade things that can be dangerous.
