On Thursday, YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki stepped down after lackluster ad revenue and complaints from top content creators who decried censorship on the platform.<\/p>\n

Wojcicki was a proponent of censoring content on YouTube to make it more kid-friendly, though the result often ended with YouTube censoring conservative viewpoints far more than others.<\/p>\n

Recently, YouTube got in to a spat with Project Veritas after they released a bombshell video that exposed a top Pfizer researcher who claimed that the company was mutating the Covid-19 virus.\u00a0 YouTube censored the video, causing a war of words between the company and Project Veritas.<\/p>\n

Wojcicki will be replaced by Neal Mohan, who was previously the Chief Product Officer of YouTube.<\/p>\n

He was considered a \u2018top lieutenant of Wojcicki, meaning that YouTube policy will likely not change in the near future.<\/p>\n

YouTube\u2019s Susan Wojcicki will step down from her role as YouTube\u2019s CEO.<\/p>\n

Wojcicki joined Google in 2008 and was one of the first employees at the company. She will be replaced by Neal Mohan. According to Reuters, \u201cMohan, a Stanford graduate, joined Google in 2008 and is the chief product officer at YouTube where he has been focusing on building YouTube Shorts and Music.\u201d<\/p>\n

Wojcicki, 54, says she will refocus her life on \u201cfamily, health, and personal projects.\u201d She became CEO of YouTube in 2014.<\/p>\n

Wojcicki became known to some after she appeared on then-CNN host Brian Stelter\u2019s show Reliable Sources, where she said that she would ensure that censorship was taking place on her platform.<\/p>\n

Wojcicki said that anything that goes against the World Health Organization\u2019s stance on Covid would be deemed a violation of YouTube policy.<\/p>\n

YouTube under Wojcicki would smother voices that dared question official narratives. Comedian Russell Brand had a video where he question the narrative around Covid-19 removed.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
