I'm not seeing the word "sorry" or any admission of wrongdoing.

"We suspended them for violating our community guidelines at the time, but now those guidelines have changed they can come back."

What happens when they inevitably change again? And what exactly is the point of Section 230 if YouTube takes editorial guidance from the government of the day?

 
How about restoring hundreds of thousands of videos that have been purged over the last 10+ years.

They began deleting before Covid.

So many great vids that are gone.

Probably losing market share to Rumble and Bitchute.

1/MUST-WATCH: Former YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki admits they removed over 1 million COVID videos — while coordinating directly with Biden & Fauci.

Even more disturbing: she doesn’t just defend the censorship, she pathologizes dissent — musing about whether “anti-vaxxers” should be psychoanalyzed for their behavior.

This wasn’t “content moderation.” It was government-directed censorship at mass scale — erasing science, silencing citizens, and rewriting reality

This was the May 2021 meeting where YouTube staged a so-called “Town Hall” with President Biden, Dr. Fauci, and hand-picked influencers.

Marketed as “conversation,” it was in truth a state-sanctioned propaganda event: the White House partnered with a private platform that was simultaneously banning dissenting voices, narrowing what Americans could see and hear to only government-approved talking points. This is not free speech — it is viewpoint discrimination directed by the state and enforced by Big Tech.

Events like this expose the architecture of a censorship regime where government power merges with corporate control to erase debate under the guise of “public health.”

The Constitution forbids the government from outsourcing its censorship to private actors, yet this is exactly what happened. What was presented as outreach was, in fact, an egregious violation of civil liberties — a calculated move in a global campaign to weaponize “disinformation” as a pretext for silencing dissent and manufacturing consent. https://blog.youtube/news-and-events/white-house-youtube-town-hall/

Back in the early days of COVID, YouTube suspended me for stating what we know to be fact: masks don't prevent the transmission of COVID-19.

I'm glad to see YouTube is finally taking some accountability for its role in silencing those of us who questioned the official government narrative.

“…taking some accountability”?

Where was that? They didn’t apologize. They didn’t admit to any wrong doing.

They just blithely changed their policies and invited formerly banned people back as if nothing of note ever happened.

That’s not accepting accountability. More like an attempt to toss it down the memory hole and whitewash over the patch.

Rand’s not exactly coming off as a firebrand on this.

I thought the same thing when I read that.

"Accountability"

LOL
