I think that it may be a mixture of algorithms and content being reported. I doubt an algorithm designed to target right-wing/far-right views accidentally hit Reviewbrah, so he probably got reported. Has Google even commented at all on how this censorship works? What if there is no algorithm, and it's solely dependent on what gets reported? I think they may be hand-selecting what they remove as well. Are you familiar with Lee Stranahan? He used to be chief investigative journalist of Breitbart, and honestly puts out the absolute best investigative videos exposing Soros, DNC, Black Panthers, Libya, and more. Or he used to. His entire channel got shut down, and he lost all of his videos that were ultra matter of fact, and all with serious journalistic integrity. He said that it was because of one video that contained a clip featuring an ISIS recruitment video. It's the most blatant example I have found of them censoring the truth, as opposed to what may be/contain the truth, but is ultimately just someone's right-wing viewpoint. It's a serious blow, because a lot of his video based work is gone forever, and he identifies government abuse and conspiracy better than anybody else on Youtube.
& I was really upset when I heard that Reviewbrah got demonetized. I find him genuinely endearing, and the dude even relies on his videos as his main income. Thankfully he got re-monetized shortly thereafter.
Also, Google should have never been trusted in the first place. Sadly most people are coerced into using it because the content is so good. Facebook, too. I'm sick of all of this shit. Right now the big thing that I'm worried about is Youtube and Facebook collecting third party data, but what am I to do? Use Facebook in a separately designated browser? I can disable cookies on Youtube, but that's impossible on Facebook, so I already use two separate browsers with different settings. I've stopped using Google as well. It's also bullshit that I had to manually disable a bunch of shit on Windows 10 just to not be spied on. Most people won't go as far as you have to in order to gain back a mere modicum of anonymity online. It concerns me that nobody is protesting about any of this. Would be much more significant than all of the other protests the country sees.
