Few things are more anxiety-producing than having a period of quiet suddenly broken by the insistent vibrations of a ringing cell phone. Few things are more relieving than when the caller ID shows “Spam Risk" — PolitiTweet.org

Facebook has referred activity on its platform to law enforcement that the company said were indicators for further violence in the days to come, @donie reports, citing a spokesperson. The indicators include promotional fliers for more demonstrations this weekend. — PolitiTweet.org

@DavidClinchNews @nielslesniewski @FactbaseFeed From the way YouTube's initial statement was written, the comments sound like they were not the driver of the decision. The decision seems to have resulted from the conduct of the account, not that of commenters. But they disabled comments seemingly for good measure & reason. — PolitiTweet.org

YouTube did not respond to further questions about this, but at this stage I think we can say with moderate to high confidence that the JBA remarks led to the strike and suspension. Huge thanks to @nielslesniewski and @FactbaseFeed for helping to dig on this. — PolitiTweet.org

Indeed, clicking a YouTube link to the JBA remarks (thanks, @FactbaseFeed & @nielslesniewski!) takes you to a YouTube message that says the video was removed for violating platform policies. https://t.co/OgCYmvVMN6 https://t.co/CpbKanaR5W — PolitiTweet.org

As of Wednesday morning, the south lawn remarks were still available on the White House channel, suggesting it wasn’t those remarks but the other ones, at JBA, that YouTube viewed as problematic. — PolitiTweet.org

But which one was it? Well, YouTube had said that it had removed content from the White House’s official channel — and that content would be removed that was similar to that which was removed from Trump’s own channel. — PolitiTweet.org

YouTube had told me that the strike was linked to a video of Trump’s comments to the press on Tuesday morning. Trump had two such press gaggles yesterday — one on the south lawn of the White House, and one at JBA before departing for Texas. — PolitiTweet.org

An update to this story: Trump’s press remarks at Joint Base Andrews yesterday appear to have been the final straw for YouTube, based on a look at what YouTube has said publicly and what is still on its platform. https://t.co/qdbg4vKyoU — PolitiTweet.org

Email correspondence entered into the record between Parler's policy chief and Amazon shows that as late as Nov. 19, 2020, Parler was still working on "developing a regular contact with law enforcement" to whom it could flag posts encouraging the killing of disfavored groups. https://t.co/hhWEUjDXUS — PolitiTweet.org

Airbnb had previously said it was simply reviewing DC reservations and canceling those associated with hate groups. https://t.co/UkXoMBvg6F Today's step goes much further, in a move that follows calls by government officials to avoid the DC area during the time of inauguration. — PolitiTweet.org
