YouTube said it will start deleting videos that mislead people about the outcome of the U.S. presidential election, a move that could include future postings from President Donald Trump.
The video platform owned by Alphabet Inc.’s Google said it has seen more people turn to the site over the past weeks and months for information about the fiercely fought election. More than a month after the Nov. 3 vote, Trump has refused to concede his loss to President-Elect Joe Biden and continues to promote the disproven view that there was widespread voting fraud and mismanaged ballot counting.
