Summary

Youtube announced new rules aimed at fire/\arms channels. You'll notice the /\ in the word and that is due to robots trying to restrict videos based on certain words.
Fire/\arms are legal and it is legal to purchase accessories yet Youtube has determined that these channels should be further sanctioned. What will the impact be on policy?
If no one can hear an idea or learn about something how can they vote effectively? Why are some channels, like news, exempt from many of these rules?

| 0:00.0 | I made a lot of videos criticizing YouTube and highlighting some of the big problems facing creators |
| 0:05.5 | and the general public due to censorship. And I always say that YouTube is a net positive. |
| 0:11.2 | The reason I say this is because I am able to bring new videos, and so are many other people |
| 0:17.4 | who normally would not have a voice or an opportunity to publish content to a large audience. |
| 0:22.4 | YouTube will suggest my videos to new people, allowing my videos to reach a larger audience, |
| 0:28.3 | and that's pretty awesome. But with recent developments, it would seem like YouTube might |
| 0:34.0 | slowly become a net negative. And we might be walking into that territory right now. |
| 0:39.2 | I've talked recently about how some news organizations are able to publish videos, |
| 0:44.0 | even though YouTube has deemed the original video to be inappropriate or essentially hate speech. |
| 0:49.8 | That someone could upload a video, it'll get restricted. But a news organization will upload |
| 0:54.2 | this upload the same video and it's totally fine. Now we're hearing that YouTube is pushing |

| 1:12.0 | Now I know there's a lot of people who might say so what YouTube is a private company. |
| 1:16.4 | If they don't want people using guns on their platform, then so be it. But I want to tell you why |
| 1:21.2 | that's so dangerous. And it's not about guns, it's about policy, it's about YouTube being so large, |
| 1:26.8 | it can influence our society and our government. But before I do that, let me give a quick shout out |
| 1:32.1 | through today's sponsor, all of you guys. If you haven't already go to patreon.com forward slash |
| 1:36.8 | Timcast and become a patron today, there are many different tiers to choose from. Most notably is tier |
| 1:41.8 | one at 10 dollars per month. You get access to behind the scenes photo and video when I'm not |
| 1:46.0 | traveling and bonus commentary posts. So please consider becoming a patron at whatever |
| 1:51.0 | level you feel comfortable today to help support my work. First let's look at what happened in |
| 1:55.9 | the news from Bloomberg technology. YouTube bans firearms demo videos entering the gun control |
