But
Reddit
,
Facebook, Digg, Youtube and other social media sites
have long censored content as well.
For example, Facebook
pays low-wage foreign workers to delete certain content based upon a censorship list
. For example, Facebook deletes accounts created by any Palestinian resistance groups.
Digg was caught censoring stories which were controversial or too critical of the government. See
this
and
this
.
Many accuse Youtube of
blatant censorship
.
And today, two front-page stories on Reddit show:
Quote :
(1) Reddit censors
and
(2) Redditors are furious about it
(Reddit is an immensely popular website, especially among young men.
6%
of all adults – and
15%
of all males aged 18-29
– read Reddit.)
One front-page Reddit story today – with more than 8,000 upvotes at last count-
reported
:
The Russian news site RT.com has been banned from the popular Reddit forum r/news for spamming and vote manipulation.
The top comments to the story are
