YouTube censors a video about...social media censorship: The Foundation for Economic Education (FEE) posted a video in its "Out of Frame" series on its YouTube channel that was titled: "Social Media is Censoring You. We Have the Receipts." This video spend over 20 minutes discussing social media censorship. Ironically, at one point the narrator said: "It all just feels like escalating nonsense that can only be fully described by words I can't say on this series without getting age-restricted." This was ironic because YouTube has applied a filter to the video that reads: "This video may be inappropriate for some users." Users must then click the "I understand and wish to proceed" button in order to view the video. It is not clear what led to YouTube labeling this video in this manner, though the video does include some news footage from the Capitol riot.
