YouTube

Self-censorship
I don't believe it.
I suppose to do it, you will not have had some kind of pressure on you?
And if youtube were french? I look at some platforms like VK or OK, even porn (legal) I can find and see without restriction.

I don't suppose there is much gay porn at VK and OK

And what about https://perpendicular.xyz/ru/site_blocking ?

[pillowbaker]

Just curious.

If youtube was maintained by the French or even the Russians, do you think it would be open for a wider variety of content, and would the site operate as well as it does?

Some that YT would not allow to upload.

I know this is not the right place for this, but does anyone know if there is a forum about "baptism" like this one on YouTube.

I am furious with youtube

Someone updated with a new link in that thread if you didn't know, homie. Better go use your favorite video downloader to grab it.

It's obvious you can get it anywhere, what bothers me is that I deleted it from my channel for something as insignificant as moderate skin exposure and even more so that it's cinema and not something amateur if it can be illegal.

And I wonder why on other platforms like VK or Vimeo the same thing doesn't happen with censorship?

Well VK is Russian

VK is Russian, so it is difficult to make a direct comparison with the American YouTube. I would expect they would have DIFFERENT content censored, rather than NO content censored. A better comparison is Vimeo and YouTube, because both are American. And I have to say you are right: they do seem to have different internal standards. This is to be expected when the heads of companies have great leeway to choose how to run their business. Why would they all be the same? It also seems to me that YouTube has a wider range of content, is a much larger company, and is way more popular. This makes it a bigger and more obvious target for criticism, and for legal action against it around the world. MAYBE - (I am just guessing here, I admit) - its censorship policies have developed as a result of the court cases it has been involved in.

I suppose youtube has big major companies advertising on the platform, so I suppose they don't want to be associated with any dodgy videos. I'm not sure about Vimeo as I can't remember if they have ads, and if they do I'm guessing it's not the same calibre of companies that advertise on YouTube.
