YouTube will no longer recommend videos "claiming the earth is flat, or making blatantly false claims about historic events like 9/11."

"
YouTube has announced that it will no longer recommend videos that "come close to" violating its community guidelines, such as conspiracy or medically inaccurate videos.
On Saturday, a former engineer for Google, YouTube's parent company, hailed the move as a "historic victory."

"The change will not affect the videos' availability. And if users are subscribed to a channel that, for instance, produces conspiracy content, or if they search for it, they will still see related recommendations, the company wrote."

Great! While I’m sure there are a few legit conspiracy theories...for the most part they’re just ridiculous in my opinion.

Things like flat earth and lizard people and that Sandy Hook was a hoax would make my BP rise.

For some reason now, every thing has become a conspiracy theory, fake news etc.

The minute some story breaks it’s on YouTube showing that it’s false...they use edited videos and all kinds of tricks...it’s not right.

Im a huge skeptic and this has made me happy.

I left one forum because of too much posting of false stories as true.
