YouTube Announces New ‘Strike’ Policy Punishing Channels Posting False Claims

January 8, 2021 by Staff

(popculture.) In light of the pro-Trump mob that breached the U.S. Capitol Wednesday as the joint congressional session to certify Electoral College votes clearing the way for President-elect Joe Biden‘s inauguration on Jan. 20, YouTube has announced a new policy doling out “strikes” to channels posting new videos that violate the platform’s policies with “false claims” beginning Thursday.

The video-sharing platform said in a series of tweets Thursday that “due to the disturbing events” of the day before, it would implement the new standards. “Over the last month, we’ve removed thousands of videos which spread misinformation claiming widespread voter fraud changed the result of the 2020 election, including several videos President Trump posted to his channel,” the statement continues.
