What are they trying to achieve here? It's not like their youtube channel earns significant ammount of money from youtube. Also any other national propaganda is allowed and north koreas isn't? Weird.

YouTube is a US based company. By imposing sanctions on North Korea, the US has the ability to do that. Just wait to you see the cyber attack the US is going to retaliate against Russia with..

Yes, like @juurop you have point @johnnytattoo ... but again simple answer is "Global Politics"

Ah yes very true

Except there's one small, little problem. Russia NEVER cyberattacked America; there's no concrete evidence to suggest that they did and it's dangerous to assume a foreign government attacked from America's point of view.

Actually, in the US, we are hearing there is a mountain of confirmed evidence that Russia hacked the election and influenced its outcome directly. All our intelligence sources agree and confirm.

I sincerely doubt that whatever "intelligence" confirmed by the CIA influenced the election. All our intelligence sources agree and confirm? LOL!! Yeah, right.

Watch verifiable news. Good luck

Yes, you are correct @juurop ... but this is more about "Global Politics" right !?

How ironic that America is shutting down YouTube channels relating to North Korea by posing sanctions while at the same time censoring what they deem "fake news" here. Pathetic.
