It would be censorship only with the consent of the governed, as it should be.

Also folks, keep in mind that I am absolutely not saying that the government should regulate every video on YouTube, I am only saying that YouTube should lose its special privileges if it wants to play that game itself. It is a critically-important distinction that I feel is being missed here.

No, I would vote those morons out of office. As it stands I don't have nearly enough money to vote the Alphabet CEO out of office.

You probably don't have enough money to vote a government out of office, either.
