    Exclamation Re: Internet Censorship: So it continues...



    YouTube censored an episode of Louder with Crowder and suspended the channel for a week after a show featuring Infowars host Alex Jones allegedly violated the company’s “hate speech policy.”

    A message from a YouTube representative addressed to Crowder’s half-Asian lawyer Bill Richmond Wednesday notified the team their episode titled, “Special Guest ALEX JONES on ‘Great Reset’ & Joe Rogan TRIGGERS Leftists AGAIN!” was offensive to the gay community and constituted an actionable offense.



    “YouTube has repeatedly instructed Mr. Crowder regarding its hate speech policy and warned him against continuing violations of that policy through content he uploaded to YouTube,” the message states.

    “The video…contains a segment that targets the transgender community in an offensive manner, for example, by indicating that trans people pose a rape threat to women.”

    In a rebuttal responding to the censorship, Crowder noted the episode “covered SPECIFIC, documented instances of rape.”

    “A hard strike from YouTube and Wow… this is terrifying. We covered SPECIFIC, documented instances of rape. @YouTube says not allowed. All parents should take note. If you believe in the insane notion of biological sex, you will be silenced.”

    “In the video, which can still be viewed on Rumble, Crowder and others on the show discussed the claim from the Women’s Liberation Front that at least one woman at a woman’s prison had become pregnant after being housed with a male,” reported The Blaze.

    During the segment, Crowder segues to a comedy skit where Alex Jones appears as an angel and delivers a message to an incarcerated female telling her she’ll soon be impregnated by her cellmate, who’s a transgender female, via rape.

    “Do not be afraid,” Jones tells the jailed woman, “for behold I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people for there is born to you a baby in this cell and this shall be a sign unto you of.



    “A virgin birth? A miracle?” the imprisoned woman asks.
    “Ha, no,” Jones responds, adding, “Your cellmate, that guy dressed as a woman, he’s going to rape you…repeatedly.”

    YouTube’s takedown coincides with a case out of Loudon County, Virginia, first reported by the Daily Wire, where a father was arrested for speaking out at a school boarding meeting after his 9th-grade daughter was molested in a school bathroom by a male-to-female transgender student wearing a skirt back in May.

    Debate from Members of Parliament censored from YouTube.


    YOUTUBE CENSORS DAVID DAVIS MP’S SPEECH AGAINST VACCINE PASSPORTS
    BIG BROTHER WATCH TEAM / OCTOBER 14, 2021
    https://bigbrotherwatch.org.uk/2021/...ine-passports/

    YouTube censors David Davis MP’s speech against vaccine passports

    YouTube has removed a video of former minister David Davis MP giving a speech against Covid passports during Conservative Party Conference. The video was uploaded by the non-partisan civil liberties NGO, Big Brother Watch.

    YouTube removed Davis’ speech, filmed at a conference fringe event held by Big Brother Watch, for violating its policy on “medical misinformation” but did not specify what content had breached the rules. In a notification email to Big Brother Watch, the platform said: “YouTube doesn’t allow claims about COVID-19 vaccinations that contradict expert consensus from local health authorities or the World Health Organization (WHO).”

    Mr Davis slammed YouTube’s claims regarding his speech as “potentially libellous” and maintained that the speech was “wholly accurate”.

    In the censored speech, Mr Davis promoted the benefits of vaccination but warned that domestic vaccine passports are “illiberal, demanding that we an ordinary British citizen produce our papers to do something which is normal in our daily lives.”

    “We know from our history that a free society is a greater, a better, a more economically successful, a happier place to be,” Mr Davis said.

    Big Brother Watch, which is leading the national campaign against domestic Covid passes, said that the group has never received enforcement from YouTube or any social media platform before, and is mounting an appeal to the company’s decision.

    David Davis MP said:

    “This is an outrageous attack on free speech. Throughout the pandemic, we have seen blatant attempts by Big Tech to silence opposition voices challenging the conventional wisdom. This episode serves as a further example of the worrying trend of strangling free speech.

    My speech at conference was carefully researched, wholly accurate and backed up with the latest scientific evidence.

    This Government will shortly be bringing forward the Online Safety Bill. This harmful piece of legislation is nothing but a censor’s charter that only hands more power to these unaccountable Silicon Valley giants.

    The unambiguous attempt by YouTube to censor my speech is a warning. If YouTube is happy to attempt to silence elected Members of Parliament, then they are also happy to censor anyone uploading content to their services.

    The Government must stop the erosion of free speech online. That starts with looking again at the wholly inadequate proposals in the Online Safety Bill.”

    Mark Johnson, Legal and Policy Officer at Big Brother Watch said:

    “The removal of David Davis’ brilliant speech at our civil liberties event is a serious act of censorship from a platform with a growing track record of clamping down on free speech. YouTube has become increasingly intolerant of discussion around the pandemic. If a Member of Parliament and a human rights group can be censored by YouTube, so can anyone.

    “The Government is doing nothing to tackle online censorship but stands to make the problem worse with broad rules clamping down on lawful speech in its new Online Safety Bill. This ought to be a wakeup call to politicians that freedom of speech is under severe threat in the digital world.”

    ENDS.

    ...

    ... intersting sabotage of websites, from Jim Stone:
    This site was sabotaged for a full month
    I bet it loaded better today. It got sabotaged because I forgot my own advice - to never call out to another web site if you are alt media because they can hang you. In this case, it was Twitter embeds, Twitter seemed to be setting timers that froze this site during load and never applied those timers to my IP so I never saw it. If the site loaded quickly for you today it is because I kicked Twitter off. "Twitter never takes time to load" is not relevant when they make an exception and try to screw a site that does an embed because that site does not suit their politics.

    Brazilian senators ask high court to BAN President Bolsonaro from social media after bogus claims Covid shots are linked to AIDS

    https://www.rt.com/news/538513-brazi...media-vaccine/

    Senators in Brazil have filed a request with the country’s Supreme Court, asking justices to issue an order suspending President Jair Bolsonaro from social media after he claimed Covid-19 jabs were linked to AIDS.

    On Tuesday, the Covid Parliamentary Inquiry Commission (CPI) approved a request from opposition parliamentarians to sanction the president’s use of social media after Bolsonaro claimed in a video shared on Facebook and YouTube that Britons who had been given two Covid-19 shots were developing Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) faster than expected.

    The request to raise the matter to the high court was approved by the CPI on Tuesday morning. The CPI, which was charged with investigating the Brazilian government’s handling of the Covid-19 pandemic, has accused Bolsonaro of “crimes against humanity” as well as eight other crimes.

    According to local media, the Socialism and Liberty Party (PSOL) raised the criminal complaint against the president for “violations of the Penal Code, infraction of a preventive sanitary measure and danger to the life or health of third parties.”

    Europe’s Digital Services Act: on a Collision Course With Human Rights
    October 27, 2021
    By Cory Doctorow

    Last year, the EU introduced the Digital Services Act (DSA), an ambitious and thoughtful project to rein in the power of Big Tech and give European internet users more control over their digital lives. It was an exciting moment, as the world’s largest trading bloc seemed poised to end a string of ill-conceived technological regulations that were both ineffective and incompatible with fundamental human rights.

    We were (cautiously) optimistic, but we didn’t kid ourselves: the same bad-idea-havers who convinced the EU to mandate over-blocking, under-performing, monopoly-preserving copyright filters would also try to turn the DSA into yet another excuse to subject Europeans’ speech to automated filtering.

    We were right to worry.

    The DSA is now steaming full-speed-ahead on a collision course with even more algorithmic filters – the decidedly unintelligent “AIs” that the 2019 Copyright Directive ultimately put in charge of 500 million peoples’ digital expression in the 27 European member-states.

    Copyright filters are already working their way into national law across the EU as each country implements the 2019 Copyright Directive. Years of experience have shown us that automated filters are terrible at spotting copyright infringement, both underblocking (permitting infringement to slip through) and overblocking (removing content that doesn’t infringe copyright) – and filters can be easily tricked by bad actors into blocking legitimate content, including (for example) members of the public who record their encounters with police officials.

    But as bad as copyright filters are, the filters the DSA could require are far, far worse.
