YouTube on Tuesday disabled comments on a livestream of a House Judiciary hearing on hate speech and white nationalism, citing the presence of "hateful" messages.
About an hour after the hearing kicked off, YouTube said it would no longer allow users to comment on the livestream of the hearing.“Hate speech has no place on YouTube. We’ve invested heavily in teams and technology dedicated to removing hateful comments / videos. Due to the presence of hateful comments, we disabled comments on the livestream of today’s House Judiciary Committee hearing,” YouTube’s press account tweeted.
The decision came as a representative for YouTube parent company Google testified before the House panel on its efforts to curb the spread of hate speech online. Rep. Jerry Nadler , who chairs the committee, pointed to the incident as emblematic of issues how social media companies handle such content.Nadler earlier in the session hammered online platforms for serving as "conduits to spread vitriolic hate messages."
