The Left (even the less radical part) is apparently not afraid to file frivolous or
SLAPP suits, as Sargon of Akkad (Carl Benjamin) claims, where he had to pay tens
of thousands to defend himself in NY from England, link This was apparently a copyright claim.
Benjamin was sued by Hillary Clinton supporter Akilah
Hughes for using her video from Clinton’s concession night in losing to Trump,
and modifying it to make fun of it. Akkad eventually prevailed in court and is now
suing for legal fees (story).
Reclaimthenet also has stories about YouTube’s
crimping cyptocurrency channels, and especially demonetizing channels
discussing Coronavirus.
YouTube is said to have demonetized almost all videos
discussing the coronavirus. Presumably
this is to discourage conspiracy theories (Wuhan lab), but this time the independent
medical channels have been quite reliable and superior to mainstream media. Rush Limbaugh, well, no.
