Is this new? Here's a video in question:<p>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yG9xMiFRQrs<p>It's of a French woman defacing a mural in Paris that said 'French women belong to African men' (to, 'French women belong to French men').<p>http://renegadetribune.com/french-women-belong-to-african-men-mural-gets-defaced-by-female-activist<p>a) Since when has YouTube prohibited hate speech?<p>b) This was far from hatespeech, more like a corrective - or, one piece of hatespeech being modified to another.<p>c) What can of worms has Google opened, putting the burden of deciding what hatespeech is, and isn't? Why would they be so crazy?
