Sen. Paul Boycotts YouTube Over 'Censorship'

Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., said Monday he won’t post videos on YouTube unless he’s criticizing the platform or drawing attention to "censorship." “Today I begin my exodus from Big Tech, starting with the worst censor of all, YouTube,” he said in a statement. Private companies have a right to ban users, but those who believe in open discourse should “shun the close-minded censors and take our ideas elsewhere,” he said. He cited YouTube censorship of videos about COVID-19 and masks. His content can be seen on Rumble.com, he said. Google didn’t comment.
