YouTube and TikTok rarely act on climate misinformation, even when it breaks their own rules - Science Feedback

A joint investigation by Science Feedback and Fundación Maldita.es reported more than 300 climate misinformation videos in French and Spanish. YouTube never answered, and TikTok restricted only a small minority of them and overturned none of its decisions on appeal.

      Still just much numbers to cause panic, asides from moderation tending to focus mostly on English-language cases or no intervention at all (I’m still convinced Youtube’s moderation is automated)
