The Algemeiner reports on recent decisions made by Apple, Google, and YouTube, which were praised by anti-hate groups as positive steps towards preventing the spread of anti-Semitism on their platforms. They discuss the Online Hate Prevention Institute’s recent report documenting one YouTube user who uploaded over one thousand videos in a single day “the majority of which were blatant hate speech,” and remained on the site for nearly a month, until YouTube closed the user’s account within 24 hours of receiving an advance copy of OHPI’s report.

Our CEO Andre Oboler commented that “YouTube must be commended for its speedy response to OHPI’s report […] But it is concerning that such hateful content, and in such volume in a single account, was able to remain on the YouTube site for over a month without triggering internal warnings.”
