YouTube admits mistakenly designating video about antisemitism as 'hate speech' - again

John Ware’s documentary, which aired on July 10, revealed the extent of interference by Jeremy Corbyn’s office in the handling of antisemitism allegations against party members.

It was the second of Mr Gross’s videos to be removed by YouTube in less than a month.

The first, a clip of investigative reporter Carole Cadwalladr criticising Google for suggesting antisemitic search terms, was taken down for breaching YouTube’s policy on “harmful content and hate speech”.

Mr Gross told the JC: “One could give them the benefit of the doubt that the initial ban was a mistake caused by a badly-set computer algorithm. The rejection of the appeal seems deliberate.”

A YouTube spokesman said the company uses a “combination of technology and people” to enforce its content guidelines.
