Title: Youtube helping?
Post by: Willoughby on December 19, 2018, 11:44:37 AM
I'm noticing that most Youtube videos that are about the lunar landings (even if the video's intent is to propagate the hoax), there is a blurb right below the video window which links to the Encyclopedia Britannica's article on the Apollo space program.  I don't know if this is a personalized ad for just me, or if this is an attempt by Youtube to educate people.  Anyone else seeing this?

I have the same link on my YouTube.  Perhaps the editors are trying to educate the BS that has been presented for I don't know how long.

Yes, it was announced earlier this year in an attempt to stamp down on conspiracy theories and fake news
