On Wednesday, December 9, the administration of the video that hosts YouTube announced that it will remove any material alleging widespread fraud and falsification during the US presidential election that affected its outcome.
This is reported on the official YouTube blog.
“Enough states have certified the election results to determine an elected president,” the report says. Because of this, the hosting begins to remove any content uploaded today or at any time after claims of widespread fraud or errors changed the outcome of the US presidential election.
Then, the videos indicating that the President of the United States won by fraud or program failures will be removed. The management of the video hosting clarified that this policy is effective as of today.
The blog says that news and comments on the elections “may remain on the site if there is a significant educational, documentary, scientific or artistic context.”
The article mentioned that the content restriction related to voter fraud began in early fall. During this time, thousands of videos were deleted. Approximately 77% of these videos were deleted before reaching 100 views.
Recall that the American elections took place in the United States on November 3. Most of the votes have already been counted, but Trump says Biden won through massive fraud and the courts are already underway.
Likewise, “Strana” reported that Donald Trump insists on the elimination of an article that exempts online platforms from responsibility for the content of user comments.
