YouTube restricts access to interview with Protasevich

5 июня 2021
YouTube has once again infringed on impartiality, freedom of speech and media democracy. The video hosting simply hid the video, which was number one in the trends. The interview with Roman Protasevich was accused of containing the unacceptable content. According to community members, the video contains material that may "scare or shock" some users. Yes, fugitives are indeed frightened and shocked by the truth disseminated by the extremist. An age restriction has now been imposed on the video - the content is only available to viewers over the age of 18. The site also asks viewers to confirm their consent to view the interview before it is shown. This is the kind of double-barrier that a resource that purports to be unbiased is putting up.
