The people at Google has decided that Youtube will start censoring videos with "sexually suggestive content" and profanity. they have outlined this censorship in a blog post they call ""
Demotion of sexually suggestive content and profanity - Videos that are considered sexually suggestive, or that contain profanity, will be algorithmically demoted on our 'Most Viewed,' 'Top Favorited,' and other browse pages. The classification of these types of videos is based on a number of factors, including video content and descriptions. In testing, we've found that out of the thousands of videos on these pages, only several each day are automatically demoted for being too graphic or explicit. However, those videos are often the ones which end up being repeatedly flagged by the community as being inappropriate.
What this is all about is a few assholes are offended by things that are too "sexual" and "bad" language, these things offend them and they think that cause they offend them others should not be allowed to say or do them. And Google is coddling these ass hole.
, with out the freedom to offend you do not have the freedom to critisise and with out the freedom to offend and criticise you do not have freedom of speech. To have a free market place of ideas you need freedom of speech.
But because of a few assholes Google is limiting the freedom of speech on Youtube. Trying to appease them so they would not be offended. These people do not need to be coddled, they need some one to tell them that the world is an offensive place and they need to pull the stick out of there ass, get over it and get past it.
