A breeding ground for terrorists and radicalization - yes, the tone towards the Youtube platform has been high lately. The criticism has resulted in the video platform at the beginning of summer tightening its rules on how they define hate speech and anti-Semitism in the thousands of videos uploaded on the platform.

Now, Youtube announces that the new policy has resulted in five times as many videos being removed this year compared to the same period last year. 111,185 videos, 17,818 channels and 538 million comments were removed during the second quarter of the year, citing the new policy, DN writes.
