Last week, YouTube suspended the Abortion Pill Reversal (APR) account for “repeated or severe violations of [the] Community Guidelines.” Four videos were posted to the account. The “offending” videos included one webinar explaining APR in scientific and medical terms. The remaining three told the stories of women who chose life for their babies using the APR protocol.
Citing its policies on “harmful or dangerous content,” YouTube opted to suspend the APR account entirely, explaining that it “doesn’t allow content that encourages or promotes violent or dangerous acts that have an inherent risk of serious physical harm or death.” Examples of videos that violate this policy are videos about “instructional bomb making, choking games, hard drug use, or other acts where serious injury may result.”
The move comes mere weeks after a new study found that the Abortion Pill Reversal protocol is both safe and effective for women who change their mind after beginning a chemical abortion. The study, which followed 754 women who wanted to stop their in-progress chemical abortion, reported a 68 percent success rate in reversing the effects of mifepristone, the first pill in the two-part chemical abortion process.
Heartbeat International initiated YouTube’s formal appeal process on April 30. They are hopeful that rather than taking sides in the abortion debate, YouTube’s decision was a mistake.
“We are confident that YouTube did not intend to silence a woman who was merely telling her own abortion story, simply because that story ended with a healthy baby boy,” said Godsey. “We look forward to the account being restored quickly.”

Google is the parent company,through purchase, of youtube. i hope this is not the beginning of the sort of censorship software that china forced gool]gle to craft for their needs of information control
correction, actually Google’s clone, ‘alphabet’ is the parent company. youtube once stated that it wanted to stay away from ‘controversial religious issues’ and things that might make families unhappy.
Let’s get real here. We know perfectly well what YouTube’s intentions were and are. Call a spade a spade for that is what it is. A spade.
“acts that have an inherent risk of serious physical harm or death”
Are they referring to Killing Children – or is that Not an act with the inherent risk of Death?
My edition od the ‘Catholic Voice’ just arrived, with an article by ‘Rev. Rollheisser warning us that Moral Outrage is the Opposite of Morality, sort of, only different
His essay bemoans “Pro-Life & Pro-Choice groups angrily shouting at each other…”
Curious that he uses the term “Pro-Choice” for the doctrine of choosing to put babies to death, without any discussion of the stark difference between the two
But then the ‘Voice’ (which is consistently radically Leftist / Gender Feminist) doesn’t need to earn subscriptions, they are levied regardless of value
The Abortion Pill Reversal is not “harmful or dangerous content,” but saves the life of an unborn baby.
Good luck to the account being restored. Whatever Satan wants Satan Gets and right now Satan needs SACRIFICES .
