Google shutters more than 200 YouTube channels amid Hong Kong protests

Google suspends 210 YouTube channels tied to misinformation about Hong Kong protesters. The move comes days after Twitter and Facebook said they would suspend nearly 1,000 accounts linked to a state-backed disinformation campaign. Google stopped short of explicitly blaming the Chinese government for the misleading accounts.

The company says it found use of VPNs and other methods to disguise the origin of these accounts.”]
