Youtube on Thursday expanded its policies against hate and harassment to include removing content targeting an individual or group with a conspiracy theory like QAnon that has been linked to real-world violence.
The update comes less than a week after the platform’s CEO Susan Wojiciki came under criticism for declining to commit to an outright ban of the sprawling QAnon conspiracy theory, a step Facebook took last week.
"I think if you look at QAnon, part of it is that it's a grassroots movement, and so you could see just lots and lots of different people who are uploading content that has different QAnon theories," she told CNN’s Poppy Harlow. "We're very proactive in terms of removing it, and I think you'll see us continue to be so."
The new policy update is technically not a full ban, but a Google spokesperson told The Hill that the effect will be similar, saying that the vast majority of QAnon content on the platform would be affected.
Starting Thursday, videos that directly link any individual or group to QAnon could be removed. Youtube operates under a three strikes policy, where the first two violations result in a temporary freeze on posting and the third is grounds for banning an account.

And they do nothing about bLM and Antifa.
All of the bad guys are hoisting their pirate flags and openly waging war against the people try to get the Truth out.
This is good. This is the plan. Let the people see how this stuff operates.
Tell me, if it is all “bunk”, then why worry about Q and why ban it?
There are many kooky videos on YT. Will they ban them all?
I think Barr needs to send a stern letter...!
Amazon will come out later today and announce they’ve burned all the books in their warehouses, and the digital versions have been permanently deleted (via powerful magnets)/S.
So "hate and harassment" means any info the Left wants to suppress.
The QAnon kooks will take this as proof that their theories are right.
Just observed that the 3 YouTube sites that I frequent related to QAnon information have all been deleted this morning...
1984 + 36...
These people are stupid...
“The QAnon kooks will take this as proof that their theories are right”
Especially considering all the crazy stuff on Youtube. Hand picking QAnon sounds really strange when they allowed Farrakhan and AntiFa. I assume it is due to OrangeManBad.
“The QAnon kooks will take this as proof that their theories are right. “

So, you are in favor of Leftists censoring to cover up government corruption and influence elections...?
Maybe you should get your tyranny-loving JACKWAGON down to Venezuela...
Arriba, Arriba, Andale...Amigo...!
Youtube is a vast wasteland of bigfoot and UFO and "Jew bankers are running the world" conspiracies. Strange that they don't take those down. So yeah, if you throw a stone, the dog that yelps is the one that got hit. (can't believe I'm defending the Qtard's right to speak in the town square)
Along with redpill78 and x22 report?
No longer on my subscribed list
Don't feel bad. Someone has to work in the kitchen after all.
Even Qtards have to eat I suppose.
Big list of channels deleted...

The media love anon sources unless there is a Q in front of it.
