YouTube Deleted My Channel Again Without Notice or Strikes

by Scott Creighton

UPDATE 2: US Launches New Strikes Against Iran.... coincidence? 

UPDATE: How about this timing and this quote from Hasan Piker (I'm not a big fan but this is certainly relevant to the discussion):

'There is certainly something more nefarious at play... there are different motivating forces here obviously the most obvious one is I am a prominent critic of Israel, very frustrating for a lot of people who recognize Israel has fallen out of favor and they want to engage in a disciplining operation to make sure that (channels) shy away from communicating their thoughts on Israel... I am being made an example of.' Hasan Piker

Of course he is wearing a DSA hat while doing the interview, promoting the likes of AOC and the rest of the fake left establishment.

I wish I were shocked. But I'm not. They were getting better about the censorship since Susan WikiWiki left (whatever her name was) but now that the shit has hit the fan for glorious Israel and even the right-wingers are jumping ship, it was only a matter of time before their little hateful algorithm singled me out again and erased my channel for the good of God's chosen people. 

Turns out talking about Jabotinsky's Iron Wall was a bridge too far for YouTube censors. Simply reading it to an audience who may not have been aware of it was somehow 'in support of a violent criminal organization' though I never mentioned one... other than the IDF, Irgun and the Stern Gang.

I don't know what to think at this moment really. Don't even know if I should care. When the world is so convoluted, so upside down, where wrong is right and genocide is peace, something as trivial as a YouTube channel seems like nothing in the larger scheme of things. 

I'm now a guest on YouTube on my Roku TV platform. Oh the shame of it all.

How Much Longer Do You Think I Have?

How much longer do I have? I don't know. None of us do. But we keep tilting at windmills as long as we can in hopes the conscience of the world catches up... soon.

But this is their big push, their Greater Israel, their technocratic pipe dream, their Great Reset. This is their holeshot. This is their last chance. Its all or nothing and its' TrumpyBear making it all possible for them while the so-called opposition party does nothing to get in the way. 

Section 230 Is Way More Than Just a Social Media Liability Shield

from Public Knowledge

We are nearing the 30th anniversary of the Communications Decency Act of 1996, in which lies Section 230, the infamous internet liability shield opponents believe is the major roadblock to making platforms a safer, healthier space for free expression. Responding to incessant calls to hold social media platforms accountable for harm, a bipartisan, bicameral group of lawmakers have championed repealing or reforming Section 230. The most recent charge is driven largely by kids’ online safety debates, and is being led in the Senate by Senators Lindsay Graham (R-SC) and Dick Durbin (D-IL) with support from a bipartisan group of 8 other lawmakers. In the House, Representative Harriet Hageman (R-WY) introduced her own Section 230 sunset bill to tackle what she perceives as “liberal Silicon Valley bias” in platform content moderation. Most recently, Representative Jimmy Patronis (R-FL) introduced the Promoting Responsible Online Technology and Ensuring Consumer Trust (PROTECT) Act, legislation to repeal Section 230, coming from the angle of holding platforms accountable for harm to children. 

On Its 30th Birthday, Section 230 Remains The Lynchpin For Users’ Speech

(They claim they want to protect kids online but that's bullshit. They want to shut down all forms of speech they don't like specifically anyone talking about Israel committing genocide, our turn to fascism and perhaps even discussion of the Epstein files.) 

from Electronic Freedom Foundation

For thirty years, internet users have benefited from a key federal law that allows everyone to express themselves, find community, organize politically, and participate in society. Section 230, which protects internet users’ speech by protecting the online intermediaries we rely on, is the legal support that sustains the internet as we know it.

Yet as Section 230 turns 30 this week, there are bipartisan proposals in Congress to either repeal or sunset the law. These proposals seize upon legitimate concerns with the harmful and anti-competitive practices of the largest tech companies, but then misdirect that anger toward Section 230.

But rolling back or eliminating Section 230 will not stop invasive corporate surveillance that harms all internet users. Killing Section 230 won’t end to the dominance of the current handful of large tech companies—it would cement their monopoly power. 

The current proposals also ignore a crucial question: what legal standard should replace Section 230? The bills provide no answer, refusing to grapple with the tradeoffs inherent in making online intermediaries liable for users’ speech...

Joseph Gordon-Levitt Goes To Washington DC, Gets Section 230 Completely Backwards

(Rewriting Section 230 is a key part of Project 2025 fascist agenda.) 

from Tech Dirt

You may have heard last week that actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt went to Washington DC and gave a short speech at an event put on by Senator Dick Durbin calling for the sunsetting of Section 230. It’s a short speech, and it gets almost everything wrong about Section 230. 

Let me first say that, while I’m sure some will rush to jump in and say “oh, it’s just some Hollywood actor guy, jumping into something he doesn’t understand,” I actually think that’s a little unfair about JGL. Very early on he started his own (very interesting, very creative) user-generated content platform called HitRecord, and over the years I’ve followed many of his takes on copyright and internet policy and while I don’t always agree, I do believe that he does legitimately take this stuff seriously and actually wants to understand the nuances (unlike some).

But it appears he’s fallen for some not just bad advice, but blatantly incorrect advice about this. He’s also posted a followup video where he claims to explain his position in more detail, but it only makes things worse, because it compounds the blatant factual errors that underpin his entire argument...

Israel deploys AI system to monitor soldiers’ social media, block war crimes evidence

(NOTICE: they don't get their soldiers to STOP committing war crimes and crimes against humanity... nope... instead they just get some AI slop to prevent the idiots from posting evidence of their inhumanity on social media. That'll fix the problem. ಠ_ಠ ) 

from PressTV

The Israeli military has launched a major AI project, known as Morpheus, to prevent its forces from posting evidence of war crimes on social media.

The new system has been basically designed to prevent military forces from unintentionally disclosing sensitive information to the enemy on their social media, the ‘Zionism Observer’ said in a post on its X account.

AI-driven Morpheus will monitor social media accounts of Israeli forces and determine if any videos, texts, or images they post breach information security protocols.

It has been operating in a pilot phase with 45,000 personnel over the past few months, resulting in thousands of instances in which troops have had to remove information from their networks.

The launch of Morpheus underscores Israel’s growing concern over the legal risks posed by soldiers’ online activity, which could be used as evidence in international courts.

Earlier this month, the Hind Rajab Foundation (HRF) submitted a criminal complaint to the Czech Republic’s Supreme Public Prosecutor’s Office concerning an Israeli soldier’s involvement in the Gaza genocide...

Under pressure, TikTok puts a Zionist in charge of censoring pro-Palestine content

from PressTV

Under pressure from the Zionist lobby and fearing US ban, social media platform TikTok recently appointed an American Zionist to head its “hate policy” department, a move widely seen as a step toward censoring any content critical of the genocidal regime in Tel Aviv.

Erica Mindel’s appointment as TikTok’s Public Policy Manager for Hate Speech, announced in July 2025, has sparked significant criticism and controversy.

The role, which entails shaping the social media platform’s hate speech policies with a stated focus on “combating antisemitism,” has come under scrutiny due to her background, including prior service in the Israeli military (IOF) and work with the US State Department.

Mindel, a self-described “proud American Jew,” was hired following pressure from the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), a notorious Zionist lobby group in the US, after a 2023 meeting.

Her responsibilities include developing policies in line with global regulations and addressing antisemitic content. She is based in New York City and is reported to earn an estimated £280,000 annually...

Pro-Israel lobby's footprint writ large in law banning TikTok

from TRT World

... In recent weeks, US lawmakers, including top officials such as US Secretary Antony Blinken, have openly voiced concern about Palestinian voices dominating the TikTok conversation and opposition to the Israeli war growing on US campuses.

“We have heard many senators and many lobbyists in the US who have expressed clearly that they also see TikTok to be a reason why students are suddenly protesting in great numbers for Palestine and against genocide,” says Jalal Abukhater, advocacy manager at 7amleh.

“They consider TikTok to be a biased place that is amplifying more pro-Palestine viewpoints than pro-Israel.”...

Major US Jewish group backs bipartisan bill that could see TikTok banned

from Times of Israel March 2024

One of the most prominent Jewish groups in the country has thrown its support behind a fast-advancing bill that could lead to the massively popular video app TikTok being banned in the United States...

“The single most important issue to our Jewish communities today is the dramatic rise in antisemitism,” JFNA (Jewish Federations of North America) wrote in an official letter to Congress. “Our community understands that social media is a major driver of the drive in antisemitism and that TikTok is the worst offender by far.”...

Blogger Censored My Fauci Post

by Scott Creighton

The video 

Had I not been looking for reference material for my video this morning I would have never known. They just deleted my recent post on Anthony Fauci showing videos, from his own words, why he should NOT be given a pardon.

And Blogger deleted it without notice. Without an email. Without explanation.

 

Here is a screenshot of the videos in my temp folder that I uploaded in the article. As you can see they are not 'conspiracy theory' sourced but rather DIRECT TESTIMONY FROM HIM IN CONGRESS OR INTERVIEWS HE GAVE ON TELEVISION and Blogger says it's a violation of community guidelines to share them with you.

If telling you about this censorship costs me this platform, this website I have worked hard on for years and years, so be it.

fuck censorship.

Australia Has Barred Everyone Under 16 From Social Media. Will It Work?

(Keep those kids ignorant until the indoctrination is complete. After stuff like this and what they did during Covid-19 (remember the camps they kept the unvaxxed in?) who the hell would ever want to go to Australia even to visit? The Great Reset testing grounds. I feel for the people down there.)

from the NYT

Australia has imposed a sweeping ban on social media for children under 16, one of the world’s most comprehensive measures aimed at safeguarding young people from potential hazards online. But many details were still unclear, such as how it will be enforced and what platforms will be covered.

After sailing through Parliament’s lower house on Wednesday, the bill passed the Senate on Thursday with bipartisan support. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has said that it puts Australia at the vanguard of efforts to protect the mental health and well-being of children from detrimental effects of social media, such as online hate or bullying.

The law, he has said, puts the onus on social media platforms to take “reasonable steps” to prevent anyone under 16 from having an account. Corporations could be fined up to 49.5 million Australian dollars (about $32 million) for “systemic” failures to implement age requirements.

Neither underage users nor their parents will face punishment for violations. And whether children find ways to get past the restrictions is beside the point, Mr. Albanese said...

Trump picks Big Tech critic who wrote ‘Project 2025’ chapter to lead FCC

from al Jazeera

United States President-elect Donald Trump has tapped Brendan Carr, a Republican known for his criticism of Big Tech, to lead the Federal Communications Commission (FCC).

Carr, who has served as an FCC commissioner since 2017, will end the “regulatory onslaught” that has held back job creators and innovators, and ensure that the communications agency delivers for rural areas, Trump said in a statement on Sunday...

...  In a chapter of “Project 2025,” a blueprint for overhauling the federal government produced by The Heritage Foundation, Carr argued that Section 230 of the Communications Act should be limited to crack down on what conservatives say is widespread viewpoint discrimination by tech platforms...

.. Liberals have expressed alarm at Carr’s views, expressing concern that he intends to politicise the FCC and arguing that Section 230, which shields internet providers from liability over the content they carry, is essential to a free and open internet...

... Max Burns, a Democratic strategist, said that Carr was aligned with Trump’s plans to use the FCC as a “weapon against news networks the president doesn’t like”.

“Get ready,” Burns said in a post on X...

The Israel Lobby Wants You Suspended, Fired Or In Prison

from the Maple

B’nai Brith Canada (BB) recently introduced a “Seven-Point Plan to Combat Antisemitism.” This roadmap for politicians, police and others should disturb anyone who cares about stopping Israel’s genocide in Gaza.

If that sounds like you, then there’s a good chance BB and the broader Israel lobby wants you suspended from your school, fired from your place of employment, cut off from any funding you enjoy or even imprisoned. This sounds dramatic, but a close review of the plan reveals that it’s true, and worse, that much of what the group wants to happen is already in motion. 

The lobby isn’t solely or even necessarily primarily responsible for the pro-Israel actions that governments and others end up taking. Still, the groups that make up the lobby — such as BB, the Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs (CIJA) and Friends of Simon Wiesenthal Center (FSWC) — typically have been the first in Canada to call for these things to happen. Politicians follow the lobby’s lead, not the other way around, in part because the lobby uses its vast resources to take MPs on trips to “Israel” and lobby them incessantly...

Australian Bill Targets Harmful Misinformation Online but Hits Free Speech Around the World

('reasonably verifiable as false' that means they don't even have to prove something as false, just put forth a 'reasonable' argument that it may be and presto... censored.)

from CATO Institute

Last week, Australia dropped its revised Combatting Misinformation and Disinformation Bill 2024, and it’s about two sandwiches short of a picnic. The bill appears to draw some of its inspiration from the EU’s Digital Services Act in terms of creating significant responsibilities and regulations. And if past is prologue, what happens in Australia doesn’t stay in Australia—such as when Australia passed its “link tax” bill, which taxed social media companies when users shared links to news articles. That link tax spread to Canada and has been actively considered in the United States. Canada is also considering replicating Australia’s eSafety Commission, despite various cases of significant censorial overreach.

But whatever the rationale or history here, this bill not only will restrict Australians’ free speech and access to different online services, but its influence may spread and threaten American speech as well.

Let’s first look at how the bill defines misinformation and disinformation, a challenge for any bill or organization in this field. The bill defines misinformation as content that is

• “reasonably verifiable as false, misleading, or deceptive;” and
• “is likely to cause or contribute to serious harm.”

The definition also carves out some space for satire and parody, professional news content, and “reasonable” dissemination of content for “academic, artistic, scientific, or religious” reasons. Disinformation uses the same definition and adds that there must be grounds to suspect that the content was shared with the intent to deceive others or otherwise involves inauthentic behavior.

Communications Legislation Amendment (Combatting Misinformation and Disinformation) Bill 2024

from the government of Australia

On 19 September 2024, the Senate referred the provisions of the Communications Legislation Amendment (Combatting Misinformation and Disinformation) Bill 2024 (the bill) to the Environment and Communications Legislation Committee for report by 25 November 2024.  

Submissions close on the 30 September 2024.

The committee has received a large volume of material for this inquiry. The secretariat is processing this material as quickly as possible. Submissions will be loaded to the committee website in due course. 

About this inquiry: 
The bill proposes to amend the Broadcasting Services Act 1992 and would make consequential amendments to other Acts to establish a new framework to safeguard against serious harms caused by misinformation or disinformation.   

The bill would provide the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) with new regulatory powers to require digital communications platform providers to take steps to manage the risk that misinformation and disinformation on digital communications platforms poses in Australia. These would include obligations on providers to assess and report on risks relating to misinformation and disinformation, to publish their policy in relation to managing misinformation and disinformation, and develop and publish a media literacy plan.   
 
The bill would also provide ACMA with new information gathering, record keeping, code registration and standard making powers to oversee digital communications platform providers.

Free speech makes US ‘hard to govern’ – John Kerry

(Trump recently promised to silence all those voices calling for a cease-fire in Gaza. Jimmy Dore praised Elon Musk as a truth-teller who is being oppressed in Brazil for all that 'truth telling' he is doing regarding Lula. If you think for one minute that a Trump presidency will be better on our constitutional rights than a Harris administration, you are sadly mistaken. They all work for the same people at the WEF and they will pursue the same agenda.)

from RT

The freedom for individuals to choose their sources of information makes it difficult to govern effectively, former US Secretary of State John Kerry has said.

Speaking at a World Economic Forum (WEF) panel on Green Energy last week, Kerry criticized the First Amendment of the US Constitution, which protects freedom of speech and the press. 

“It’s really hard to govern today,” he remarked, arguing that social media poses challenges for building consensus in democracies.

“The referees we used to have to determine what is fact and what isn’t have kind of been eviscerated,” Kerry stated, adding that individuals now decide where to get their news.

“If people go to only one source… and they’re putting out disinformation, our First Amendment stands as a major block to simply hammering it out of existence,” added Kerry, who served as secretary of state under Barack Obama. 

As long as Democrats can “win ground” and “win the right to govern,” they will be “free to implement change,” the former senator stated.

“I think democracies are very challenged right now and have not proven they can move fast enough or big enough to address the challenges we face. To me, that is part of what this race, this election, is all about,” he added.

At another WEF event earlier this year, Wall Street Journal editor-in-chief Emma Tucker lamented the loss of the corporate media’s monopoly on information.

“We owned the news. We were the gatekeepers, and we very much owned the facts as well,” she said, noting that customers now have access to a broader array of sources...

RT reacts to Meta restrictions

from RT

US Big Tech cannot stop RT from making its voice heard, the Russian news outlet said on Tuesday, following Meta’s decision to ban it from its platforms.

On Monday, the company behind Facebook and Instagram announced that it would remove several news networks, including RT, from its applications over the coming days. It cited their purported “foreign interference activity” to justify the move, aligning with allegations made last week by the US government.

RT commented on the attack against it by saying the contrast between the West’s declared support for fair competition and the actions aimed at undermining it was “cute.”

“META/Facebook already blocked RT in Europe two years ago, now they’re censoring information flow to the rest of the world,” the statement added, referring to the American company’s compliance with an EU-wide band of RT, which the bloc imposed following the outbreak of the Ukraine conflict in 2022...
