Banned Ridley vids

Here's a collection of Ridley Report video clips that have been censored by one or more institutions.   The first Ridley Report YouTube vid was deleted in August 2011, four years after the channel went on the air.    A couple others have been deleted from other video sites over the years; I will probably try and post them later.

Two ridleos were censored by YouTube around August 19.  They are the first Ridley vids ever deleted by YouTube...after four years of constant production.

Someone reposted one of them here (thank you!)

And I've reposted the other here

More info later.

The YouTube vids simply disappeared one night and this raw data is for now the closest thing I have to an explanation:

The banning of these two vids resulted in the following benefit for my channel:  An activist stepped forward within 24 hours and volunteered to help out.  Within 72 hours he had backed up the entire Ridley Report channel by making a massive download to a spare hard drive.  Some kind of tech wizard!  And much appreciated. 

Also as you see above someone rebroadcast one of the banned videos immediately.

Banned ridleos from the early 2009 era...
actually some of these links are not banned videos but rather my stories *about* the banning.

This list is still pretty short, which speaks well of YouTube in particular.  Considering I've pumped out over 2,000 vids on their service now.

This vid was rejected from LiveLeak around Feb 9.  Strangely enough it was a vid praising LiveLeak.  They listed the reason for deleting it as "spammer."  Maybe this was because the vid had also just aired on YouTube?  I could not find a ban on airing something which had been on YouTube, in the Terms.  Maye I missed something.   One fairly unique thing about this vid was that the full ad played at the start of the vid rather than the end.

Also a couple days later, a moderator deleted the vid entirely and suddenly my account status switched to "Permanent Ban" and "number of infractions 0.00."  Go figure.  I had been actively using the account for about 5 days and had uploaded about four other vids which were not rejected.  Including some after this banned one.

I've gone ahead and made a replacement liveleak channel...we'll see if it lasts.

The number 1 rated ridleo on YouTube for 2012 was the "Activist Open Carries into CopShop" vid above.  It was initially censored, but I uploaded it again a while later.

It's under threat of deletion as of roughly Feb. 6.   But the fact it's still there indicates that it may survive.

As a precaution I'm backing it up to my new LiveLeak channel and for now it appears at

Censorship and deletion will probably become more common, and this thread will get more activity as the domestic situation presumably deteriorates.   Most of us have been lucky so far and not experienced too much of it.

YouTube removed this vid in October without a clear explanation.   It's the first censorship I've experienced there in a while.

Reposted with all the original video description text, I think.
