Ah, thanks.
Their choice.
Right, so youtube started demonitising “objectionable content”. Then various fringes started complaining about YT not being neutral or for censoring their political viewpoints.
Again, this is how it all started.
It’s about $$$ not censorship.
WuWei:Their choice.

Ok…?
thinkingman:She’s the “chair” on House Select Committee for Climate Change and so uses the power of her position in government to try to suppress any dissenting views on google searches, or youtube
She sent a letter. Read it.
Democrats hate when people disagree with them and jeopardize their plans to control the economy. So they try to silence them.

WuWei:Ah, thanks.

Just a coincidence no doubt.

No, people choose what kind of things get demonitised. Though obviously the AI sifts through videos individually, and frequently gets it wrong.
Demonitised doesn’t mean censored or removed from the platform. It means the fringe whackjobs can’t run ads on their particular brand of nuttery (at the request of the advertisers), and their ■■■■■■■■ isn’t constantly promoted in the “watch next” suggestions.
Remember all those weird CG videos that were sexually suggestive and aimed at toddlers? That was someone taking advantage of the algorithm until YT stepped in and corrected it.
WuWei:Ah, thanks.

google hippies even admit theres tampering with the results.

it is concerning when govmt pressures to control information that favors their narrative
at least to people who like freedom of exchange of ideas

Control? Again, this about running advertising on climate change denial videos and the active promotion thereof. Not the removal of those videos or the censoring of those viewpoints.
Or do they have to be able to make a buck off of their content for it to be a free exchange of ideas?

It encompasses a lot more than that but…that is what the sheople are fed.

Pressure. She is in government. It’s not about $$ anymore.

Pressure to what? To move it to the objectionable content description, as the anti-vaccination content was. It’s all still on YT.

who said anything about removing videos?
my gawd. you just created a false narrative so you can argue against it
do you work for tv news by chance?

I wouldn’t be claiming censorship if it was. Other forums exist, if the TOS changes to state that content from MoleUK goes to outside the beltway then outside the beltway it is.

What does the thread title and OP say? Censor. Suppress. Silence.
False narrative? .
Haven’t you heard the news? Using the power of your office to take steps to get yourself re-elected is A-OK.
I’ve yet to encounter a problem, that when focused on, can not be solved and this surely isn’t one. The algorithm is written by man and produces the results desired by the writers of it. The bias is intentional and it is a problem that must be addressed. They aren’t neutral.
Is Monsanto neutral? Or GM?
Is Fox News neutral?
Pressure. She is in government. It’s not about $$ anymore.
Your party just argued, and agreed with, the notion that using the power of your office to take measures to get yourself re-elected is completely fine.
