0:00.0 | Welcome back, friends, welcome back to the Corbett Report. |
0:02.9 | I'm James Corbett of Corbett Report.com coming to you in December of 2024. |
0:07.7 | But if you can cast your mind back all the way to 2022, you might remember episode 414 of the Corbett Report on the future of censorship, where I laid out the rather relatively on the big scheme of things, |
0:22.9 | minor case of digital re-personing that was happening to me at that time as I was |
0:28.8 | freshly scrubbed off of YouTube. |
0:31.8 | And yet there were all these Corbett Report YouTube channels popping up that seemed to be me, but were started in July of |
0:39.5 | 2021 by someone in Morocco and were haphazardly randomly uploading some of my videos some of the |
0:45.9 | time and I was being accused of censoring myself. It was a bizarre situation. If you don't remember |
0:51.0 | that, I hope you will take a look back at episode 414, because I went |
0:54.7 | into not only what was happening to me at that time, but the greater question of digital |

1:28.5 | a great deal of introduction, but who needs none, because all of my listeners already follow all |
1:33.9 | her work. If not, obviously, get on board. UnlimitedHangout.com is the place to go. But let's bring |
1:40.6 | her on board. Whitney, thank you very much for joining us today. Thanks, James. It's my pleasure. |
1:45.9 | Yes, and what an interesting conversation we have today. So, all right, I've set the table, |
1:51.7 | but you tell us what is happening to you in this digital repersoning future of censorship land |
1:57.6 | that we're living in these days? |
1:59.7 | Yeah, so like you, you know, I've had accounts that pop up on platforms where I don't exist, |
