I can personally attest to being shadow banned by youtube and what is like. This one I made some 14 years ago, it was intended to be rather prescient and humorous. Youtube shadow banned me within hours as it was sarcastic to EV idiots. To this day they have blurred my videos and shut off comments, it is still NOT searchable. I'll never post there again and would put a new one up on Rumble but the software company folded long ago. They have since have added their own BS lying comment.
“It’s absurd the control big tech exercises over our existence. But I complied and let the digital dollars roll.”
I would have told them to take their money and shove it... At some point we need to stand on principle or they will get even more emboldened and arrogant.
I quit Youtube years ago for even less...
