YouTube CEO: We’ll Remove Any Content that Goes Against WHO Recommendations

‘Anything that would go against World Health Organization recommendations would be a violation of our policy’

STELTER: “What does that mean? That means an increase in video views for those?”

And so remove is another really important part of our policy.”
