YouTube discovers the perils of restricting free speech

TOM GARRETT

It took over two years, but YouTube has finally learned a crucial lesson about the dangers of restricting political speech.

This month, the online video giant announced important changes to its policy of removing videos that include election-related “misinformation.”

YouTube began the policy in an effort to stop particular categories of misinformation that the company claims to cause real-world harm, including assertions that previous elections had not been fairly decided. The site removed thousands of videos under these rules, many of which allegedly included unsubstantiated claims about the 2020 presidential election.

How to watch Week 18, the final week of the NFL regular season, live online for free—and without cable

This is it. The end of the 2022-2023 regular season.

Week 18 is a bit of a bonus for football fans. Last year was the first, in fact. But that makes the playoff picture even more exciting. And the NFL, knowing this, didn’t finalize the schedule until earlier this week, to highlight the most important games in terms of playoff contention.

Of course, after Monday’s horrific on-field collapse of Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin, things got even more complicated, and both the Bills and Bengals will certainly have that in the back of their heads when they take the field—as
