      Family whose six-year old was murdered is "living in hiding" due to active and high-profile incitement against them on Facebook and YouTube with the claim they are mere actors,and their child did not exist. No action. Otoh, a glimpse of female nipple could get the page blocked.https://twitter.com/oliverdarcy/status/1022149946311618561 …

      Yes a minor copyright infringement would get page blocked, but not inciting violence and harrasment for years and years against bereaving parents. This isn't about should Facebook/YouTube censor, but what they do and what they apparently don't care about.https://twitter.com/jgee/status/1022163529883901954 …

      My friend was banned for tweeting FIFA World Cup clips! Moderation is possible when they care.

          You are strongly underestimating how easy those process are to abuse.

          Except that in addition to minor copyright infringement, tons of noninfringing material is censored as well, including fair use video clips (as the law heavily incentivizes). Regularly abused to shut down criticisms and competitors.

          Whether or not platforms should do a better job of moderating for harassment and inflammatory speech, copyright law is a *terrible* model for platform moderation.
