    It’s probably better in the long run. Extremism is linked with violence (more from the right than the left, but) and YouTube is a global platform. It’s likely they will be trying to push more moderate content that gets the facts right over sensational opinion.

        Ultimately, the timidity of the advertisers is going to drive youtube towards less controversial and less polarizing content.

        Witness the previous “adpocalypses” and the content policy responses.

      They’d probably filter out any too harsh content too, so that we can live in our little cotton insulated world’s…

      I mean they’ll decide what is “bad”, and that’s probably bad in itself.

        If you’re relying solely on a platform like YouTube for your information, you’re not getting the full picture anyway.

          Hey, you’re not sneaking off to Apple news or worse bing news eh!?!

          News nowadays is really a hassle.

            I do use Apple News because I use Apple products. It’s a nice window into the newspapers of today.
