How does YouTube separate content presented as fact vs content presented as opinion? False facts is one thing, but what if someone is just hesitant about vaccine safety?

discuss

order

While the title says All anti-vaccine content, that actual article notes, it's blocking content that says "vaccines cause chronic health effects or contains misinformation on the substances in vaccines". A person who is hesitant about vaccine safety wouldn't be blocked then. Only if you say that cause x side effect (when that is not backed in science), or if you provide false info on whats in the vaccine, since the ingredients are facts. Someone saying their is a microchip in it, would not be a fact.

They seem to be using Human moderators and only banning people/channels with a consistent track record and very clear violation of their admittedly arbitrary red line.

OK, that seems fine. I know YouTube's automatic DMCA policies are notoriously bad, but it sounds like this is a more accurate manual approach.
