Except in very egregious instances, it is probably better to let content of a variety of viewpoints exist instead of trying to police which ones are dangerous. It is definitely easier. For the Russian creators it is not about policing their viewpoints, but stopping monetization (which could also reasonably be argued for or against).

I didn't ask any questions. I think you're confused.

Yes, I am referring to how you simply ask a question instead of doing any thinking or analysis or argumentation yourself.

Yes, they do. Social Media sites are private platforms, which users pay in data to access.

So instead of inviting good discussion, you should just start it. Why do you think they're being hypocritical here?

The purpose of pointing out such hypocrisy isn't to just point it out. It's to invite speculation and investigation into the cause behind inconsistent, unfair and unbalanced applications of moral rules.

Idk, I understood it differently. I mean the spokespersons conclusion in itself is understandable but what does "But YouTube went a step further on Thursday, stopping Russian creators from making any money off of a large percentage of their audiences." mean? It very much seems like more than just Russian audiences because what else does "one step further" mean if all advertisement IN Russia was already suspeded before this "further step"?

They love to have it both ways is the problem. They can censor whatever they want because “we are a private company “ but have zero liability for allowing literal terrorist content to propagate.

It is very real, as seen in the video, there are other such people across the world too, just not all of them have guns like these tall Sudanese do.

I mean, freedom of expression doesn't always mean freedom of choosing the right side, whatever the right side may be.

What do you expect them to have sensors that speak other languages? That’d eat away at profits

Alphabet tolerates huge amounts of pro Taliban, pro CCP, and pro Russian content on YouTube. Like to the extent that it is dangerous , especially the pro Taliban content.

Is there anyone who didn't think the? Is there literally any other way it could work? Who else did you think editorialized it?

This sounds eeriliy close to the PROMIS software and I wonder if it is just the latest upgrade of that package. PROMIS was software that was developed in the U.S. and later "enhanced" by the U.S. government for spyware purposes and sold to other foreign countries. It had convenient backdoor applications that allowed the U.S. to effectively spy on whoever they sold it to. Israel was a big user. Adnan Kashoggi who is the paternal uncle of Jamal Kashoggi was involved in getting it to the Saudis back in the day. If PROMIS was Windows 95 then Pegasus is Windows 11.
