Censorship Project

The left’s hatred of President Donald Trump truly knows no bounds. 

Recode co-founder and New York Times contributor Kara Swisher is rejoicing in her assumption that Trump will be removed from Twitter. 

YouTube reversed its termination of a YouTube channel, casting further doubt on its ability to moderate consistently. “YouTube has reinstated TalkRadio's channel on its platform hours after saying it had been ‘terminated’ for breaking the tech firm's rules,’” The BBC reported Jan. 5.

Big Tech has been on a rampage against what it considers to be misinformation about COVID-19. But a trusted source like a medical journal should be safe, right? Wrong. Twitter has flagged the link to a study from the European Journal of Medical and Health Sciences as “potentially spammy or unsafe.” 

Once again, Facebook has been caught hosting a far-left group that harassed a sitting senator at his home. “Tonight while I was in Missouri, Antifa scumbags came to our place in DC and threatened my wife and newborn daughter, who can’t travel,” Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO) tweeted Jan 4.

Once again, one of Facebook’s fact-checkers has failed to acknowledge the facts — this time surrounding the origins of COVID-19. Now, even a leftist source has begun to concede that COVID-19 may have originated in a lab in Wuhan, China. Contributor to New York Magazine’s “Intelligencer” Nicholson Baker questioned whether the virus was released either on accident or on purpose. 

Online platforms got to use their favorite tool in 2020 before and even after the election: censorship.

A proposed House of Representatives rule may take the idea of censoring so-called “misinformation” even further. The resolution containing the proposed rules of the 117th Congress could impose penalties for members of Congress and congressional employees for spreading “manipulated” content, including on social media.

Talk radio star Mark Levin told his social media audiences that he would be leaving Facebook. The announcements came after Levin had already hinted at boycotting the social media giant.

Google has secured a tight grip around the research done by its staff, according to internal communications and other information obtained by Reuters. A new “sensitive topics” review procedure has, in at least three cases, “…

Facebook tries to please everybody but can’t please anybody. 

Both left and right disagree on the issues of censorship on the platform and the Facebook Oversight Board, but many do agree on one thing: that Facebook should be broken up. 

Twitter’s censorship push against President Donald Trump and his campaign continued this week. The site labeled videos from One America News Network. It also labeled part of an address by Trump, and a tweet by Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) featuring attorney Jesse Binnall’s Senate testimony about election fraud, among other tweets.

Big Tech has been trying to get on the good side of former Vice President Joe Biden for months, and now, Amazon is trying its best to cozy up to the prospective Biden administration.

The online shopping giant has hired new lobbyist Jeff Ricchetti, the brother of close Biden adviser Steve Ricchetti, according to CNBC. 

The left is never happy. Likely president Joe Biden’s team is angry at Twitter because the site won’t transfer all of President Donald Trump’s official followers to Biden.

Former Vice President Joe Biden will reportedly have a long way to go to build up his Twitter presence, assuming, as currently projected, he takes over as president in January. Twitter has reportedly told the Biden team that the official @POTUS account will be reset to zero followers, and “Donald Trump’s followers will not carry over to the official Twitter accounts assigned to the new…
