YouTube blocks all anti-vaccine content
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - YouTube will block all anti-vaccine content, moving beyond its ban on false information about the COVID vaccines to include content that contains misinformation about other approved vaccines, it said in a blog post on Wednesday.
Examples of content that won’t be allowed on YouTube include claims that the flu vaccine causes infertility and that the MMR shot, which protects against measles, mumps, and rubella, can cause autism, according to YouTube’s policies.
The online video company owned by Alphabet Inc is also banning channels associated with several prominent anti-vaccine activists including Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Joseph Mercola, a YouTube spokesperson said.
A press email for Mercola’s website said in a statement: “We are united across the world, we will not live in fear, we will stand together and restore our freedoms.”
Kennedy said in a statement: “There is no instance in history when censorship and secrecy has advanced either democracy or public health.”
The moves come as YouTube and other tech giants like Facebook Inc. and Twitter Inc. have been criticized for not doing enough to stop the spread of false health information on their sites.
But even as YouTube takes a tougher stance on misinformation, it faces backlash around the world. On Tuesday, Russian state-backed broadcaster RT’s German-language channels were deleted from YouTube, as the company said the channels had breached its COVID-19 misinformation policy.
Russia on Wednesday called the move “unprecedented information aggression,” and threatened to block YouTube.

lol.
This is like Obama’s cages blamed on Trump.
I thought the chamber of commerce goodies were in the big spending bill?
I don’t have any problem with a government shutdown. First of all, it wouldn’t be shut down for that long. Secondly, the Dims would be blamed, and third, personally I wouldn’t miss them one bit.
That is what my son wanted to avoid, everyone would know he wasn’t vaxed and he said in MA no telling what might happen.
He’s fortunate that he can still work from home 4 days a week and if that changes he will go into the office.
He likes what he does and for the most part is working for a good company.
We don’t all drive smart cars though that is where they are leading us, so are we going to have to install a meter like a taxi has?
If they could figure out a way to tax the air we breath they would do it.
“I worry for his health as he is already asthmatic.
He couldn’t get a medical exemption? Or they would still treat him like a leper?

I pray for China’s neighborhood. They have nothing to fear to prevent them from taking power.
Maybe. I just renewed my auto insurance & while talking with the agent, he wanted our odometer readings. He also mentioned that in the future we wouldn't need to report, because every time we take our car to be serviced, the odometer reading would be reported to the "authorities". I didn't ask, so I'm not sure if that is just a CA thing or a national thing, or exactly who the "authorities" are. I should follow up.
The miles tax is in addition to all the fuel taxes?
I'm assuming so. When was the last time the rescinded a tax? I remember a few years ago the big bruhaha over removing a telephone tax originally enacted in the 1800's to pay for phone lines or something that had been obsolete for decades.
Feinstein Unveils Bill to Mandate Coronavirus Vaccine or Testing for Domestic Flights
Covid-1984: Power Grab Intensifies
Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) on Wednesday proposed legislation which would require proof of a coronavirus vaccination or a negative coronavirus test in order to fly domestically ahead of the holiday season.
“We know that air travel during the 2020 holiday season contributed to last winter’s devastating COVID-19 surge. We simply cannot allow that to happen again,” Feinstein, 88, said in a statement.
The bill has won the support of the Infectious Diseases Society of America and the American Public Health Association, Feinstein said.
I'm confused, isn't the funding of the government in the spending bill?
That is what Nasty was saying she was going to have a vote on today.
She doesn't have the votes so they had to pass a stop gap bill to keep the government funded till Dec.
The Squad has said they wouldn't vote for the 1.5 infastructure bill unless the 3.5 spending bill was passed 1st.
He would be treated like a leper, hostile work environment.
