YouTube Pulling Violent Videos! | MUSIK !D TV NEWS


It’s been reported that YouTube has deleted 30 music videos due to violent content. This decision has been appealed by the British law enforcement. Also, this move is ironically similar to Spotify’s new policy from last month.

“We have developed policies specifically to help tackle videos related to knife crime in the UK and are continuing to work constructively with experts on this issue. We work with the Metropolitan Police, The Mayor’s Office for Policing and Crime, the Home Office, and community groups to understand this issue and ensure we are able to take action on gang-related content that infringe our Community Guidelines or break the law. We have a dedicated process for the police to flag videos directly to our teams because we often need specialist context from law enforcement to identify real-life threats. Along with others in the UK, we share the deep concern about this issue and do not want our platform used to incite violence.” – YouTube spokesperson via email
