  1. YouTube's playing parole officer, allowing "some" banned creators to request new channels. It's a "pilot program" with criteria fuzzier than CSS on IE6. They won't get their old channels back, so it's a fresh start, from scratch.

    If you're getting a "second chance," who decides if you're qualified? What's your take on digital rehabilitation?

  2. YouTube is giving creators who violated past COVID-19 and election policies a "second chance" to rejoin the platform. Because apparently, everyone deserves a reboot.

    Good move for creator relations, or a slippery slope for content moderation? What do you think?

  3. YouTube is opening the floodgates, reinstating accounts previously banned for misinformation. Apparently, 'free speech' now includes a re-run of old narratives. What's your take on platforms reversing moderation decisions? Is it a win for free speech or a loss for factual integrity?

  4. @edri nails it:
    "For example, Meta now allows its users to refer to “women as household objects or property” or “transgender or non-binary people as ‘it’.” It now allows users to verbally attack LGBTQ+ people by stigmatising them as “abnormal” or “mentally ill,” and said that it would generally limit moderation. As targeting people based on their appearance, race, ethnicity, national origin, disability, religious affiliation, gender identity or sexual orientation, among others, are no longer prohibited, Meta’s new policy systematically legitimises and normalises the dehumanisation of people in the guise of ‘free speech’."

    We should not call these platforms "social" media anymore. There is nothing social about them anymore...
