Some of the web's biggest destinations for watching videos have quietly started using automation to remove extremist content from their sites, according to two people familiar with the process.
The move is a major step forward for internet companies that are eager to eradicate violent propaganda from their sites and are under pressure to do so from governments around the world as attacks by extremists proliferate, from Syria to Belgium and the United States.

So they are going to take down muslim videos, are they?
It’s a simple algorithm. Just look for ‘tea’ God’, and ‘patriot’, and block everything with those words.
“Extremist” = supporting the Constitution
The liberal takeover of the 'net from the libertarians who created it means that powerful entities like Facebook and Google don't even need to bother pretending to be fair and balanced.
After BREXIT, the rise of right-wing candidates and a backlash against Muslim immigration in Europe along with the rise of Trump in the U.S., expect that these entities will start flexing their muscles to temper the fires of rebellion.
“no more conservative postings”
You got it.
The whole reason 0bama will never say “Radical islamic terror” is because “Extremist” covers both terrorists and CONSERVATIVES so well.
Some conservative videos are extremist like the pastor in Tennessee who praised the guy in Orlando for killing the gays. No need to see that. Sorry but that is extreme and unnecessary. If Facebook and Google want to ban that, good. It is their company.
I’m hoping this will be mostly used to block videos of beheadings and ISIS recruitment. If this becomes a blatant act of censoring conservatives, I expect a sudden resurgence in the print media. When all else fails, there is still paper. Eventually, some conservative will have a 9 y/o son or daughter who legally figures out a way around the block. Word of the method will quickly spread.
Google has been blocking Trump Campaign emails to me as Spam.

Well I guess this will finally stop that guy who made the video that caused the terror attacks in Benghazi!
Ok, so we need somebody to put up a site that allows these so called “extremists” videos.

Thank you. Complaining about Google, Facebook and all the other totalitarian socialists while continuing to patronize and fund them is the same as paying for the rope that they will hang you with.
There is only one effective way to let them know how you feel about their censorship and propaganda: Do not use them.
Trump for President.
Don’t you mean Startpage and Startmail?
Google Earth censors out the homes of high ranking socialist party elites in Venezuela, while Facebook censors out news of the humanitarian crisis occuring in Venezuela also. Think carefully about that folks.
It’s killing them. Nobody posts anything the least bit controversial there, i know I sure don’t. And now fewer and fewer seem to post anything at all.
