YouTube could be (possibly) Censoring videos by taking them down

[Rockinboy2000]

If you haven't heard, people like the amazing atheist, and many others have had many if not some of there videos randomly taken down with nothing offensive in them, Its unsure if its a mass false flag attack or YouTube is turning to censorship

I think that's ridiculous, but hey YouTube reserves the rights to flag videos or remove them.
I don't believe in online censorship though (especially if whatever was uploaded wasn't illegal).

The most likely possibility is somebody is leading a mass flagging of his videos, so they were removed automatically.

IT'S CRUCIAL AT THIS JUNCTURE TO FOLLOW MY SOCIAL MEDIA, as it may soon be the only way I have to communicate with you.

Oh give me a loving break.

Uh. Youtube has been taking down videos on request (bribe) from other companies for years. Now I don't think that this is coming from a company, but it could very well be in the same range of behavior they've had for a very long time now.

However I am not arguing against the fact that youtube (and google) is evil and should be avoided. Now we shall all switch to vimeo.

Lmao at the first comment on the first video

It looks more to me that some guy made some sort of bot to flag multiple videos several times at the same time. Probably hired by some feminists to show us that women aren't to be messed with or some stuff. It's pretty funny.

We should find a Youtube alternative without bullstuff copyright rules and bugged flagging system. There's got to be an alternative? Right guys?
RIGHT?

It's just a bot man, it's an automated flag system, it's easily abused by people with sufficient intelligence. There's no censorship going on here, you think YouTube would deliberately remove some big time users that make them money? Yeah in another universe.

Well Youtube needs to fix their stuff. If Youtube wasn't running a monopoly on the video sharing websites they couldn't get away with anything.

I The Amazing Atheist deserved what he got. He does nothing but post idiotic and biased rants that give the Atheist community a bad name (not that they didn't have a bad name in the first place)

He occasionally makes good points but most of the time it's just void rants.

You're right, he does make good points about most issues, but he rants and whines WAY too much.

There's no sense in it.

The main problem is he tries to argue with Christian fundamentalists. Something that cannot be won.
He's very entertaining to watch, even if he's insignificant in the argument of atheism.

I wonder if there's going to be some shutdown of youtube's servers if this is really gonna keep going on.

That and this could be the end of Youtube. But that's just my dumb theory.

What the living forget
They shouldn't be flagging stuff they don't like, IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT, loving DISLIKE IT.
Though if they want videos cleaned out, They can just flag the one thousand researchos that are riddled on YT.

I've never found research on YouTube, tits sure but not research.

Do I need to dig deeper?
