Court Sides With YouTube In 'Censorship' Battle With 'Misandry Today'

Siding with Google, a federal appellate court refused to reinstate a lawsuit by commentator Bob Lewis, who claimed the company violated his rights by demonetizing some of the videos on his YouTube channel, Misandry Today, and restricting or taking down others.

The decision, issued Thursday, upheld an order issued last year by U.S. District Court Magistrate Judge Sallie Kim in the Northern District of California.

The dispute dates to 2019, when Lewis sued Google for allegedly "censoring" his speech. 

One of the demonetized clips argued that “antifa” is a terrorist group that targets children.
