Didn’t they demonetized his channeling blocked quite a few of his videos? I don’t watch him but I understand he’s a comedian so naturally he’d have controversial stuff on his show. What I ask myself is that if we deplatform him does that protect or endanger our freedom of speech?

i can rant and rave about how bad and gross eggs are for hours. that doesnt mean the local mall has to let me shout those opinions from a stage with a microphone and speakers

True, but he wasn’t in a mall. He was on an open forum. If you didn’t like what he produced, don’t watch his stuff. I didn’t watch him for precisely that reason.

Replying to @BebopJosh @CranberryMog and
google is not a sector of the government though. they can create their own policies and enforce them how they wish. this doesn’t violate free speech.

in fact, youtube holds the right to control what kind of speech they do not want to give on their platform. it calls back to a supreme court case, hurley vs glib, wherein the supreme court ruled that private groups can control what kind of message they wish to convey.
