Vox Media "journalist"
Carlos Maza recently went on a
woke crusade to deplatform comedian
Steven Crowder from
YouTube.
This in itself failed, but the side effect of this was YouTube updating its policies, which wound up affecting creators across the site. As of now, YouTubers and even journalists are finding their channels demonetized for "offensive content".
This incident is the first example of something louder, dumber, and more devastating than the
Streisand Effect - The Maza Effect.
