I swear to god, more and more I keep having ‘clean’ versions play on Spotify, YouTube Music, Deezer - despite the song being marked as ‘Explicit’.

And no, I definitely do not have the setting checked for only playing clean versions.

It’s not just me - is it?

    No YouTube is now censoring things that they find profane. I was watching one of my favorite channels and host was discussing the HBO Doc on Nickelodeon and she wasn’t being vulger but everytime she said the words sexaul assault they would cut it. Pissed me off. I am fucking adult and don’t want YouTube deciding what words I am allowed to hear.

    Shit getting worse like fucking 1984 when exactly are we going rise up and demand better?

      1984 supposes it’s coming from big government and social structures. Seems like a lot of people just aren’t watching what big corporations are doing cause it’s getting at least just as creepy…

        Let’s refer to it as 2010, birth of Sir Citizens United, because if the large corporations want something to happen, or to not happen, they’re likely to get their way after after a year or two.

        some exceptions occur, because they always do

      Exactly the moment when a person(s) of strong character evident primarily through the way they conduct themselves. No amount of documentation of previous good character can hold up against someone who doesn’t care about it on the first place.

      They need be only 2 things: Humble, and undeniably good character. When someone meets them, the only people who won’t think they’re worth following will be people who don’t have good intents, and even they will internally admit and know who they’ve met.

      I think the imaginary power couple of Keanu Reeves and Julie D’Aubigny

      That would be when consumers decide to come together and operate collectively in their own best interests against immense multinational corporations.
      Soooooooooo, possibly quite a while.
