Disgusting. Trans Day of Visibility was three days ago, by the way.

It feels like we are witnessing the death of the internet.

Your life must be exhausting, but thanks for never letting up on being a good journalist. Sorry about the CTV gig.

Exact same policy as Facebook. I've been waiting for this to happen. It's literally just approving harassment and bigotry. But, surely no one is surprised by this, the Google CEO was right on stage with Trump. Obviously he's bent the knee.

I wonder how this effects YouTube Canada specifically?

Soon the only speech that will be against the rules will be criticizing the bourgeoise class in any way. Oh i forgot, they will also make it illegal to criticize any of their for profit wars. I really don't know what happened since 2020, but the fast tract to fascism is alarming.
