Youtube bans North Korean vloggers, so much for "free speech".
Youtube bans North Korean vloggers, so much for "free speech".
The channels featured English-speaking young women, including a girl as young as 11, who claimed to offer an unfiltered look at every day life in North Korea as informal video bloggers, or "vloggers."
The YouTube spokesperson said in a statement that the decision to remove the channels was taken to comply with "U.S. sanctions and trade compliance laws, including those related to North Korea."
"After review and consistent with our policies, we terminated the three channels shared with us," the statement said, without elaborating on who brought the channels to YouTube's attention.
Considering the timing of the article, this is likely the reason, although YuMu is not mentioned.
As for what YuMi is? Basically (as far as I can tell) everyday life of a Korean person-vlogging "propaganda".
Some of her videos:
Here's an archive of a snack-unpackaging video of hers:
And here is a video uploaded by another youtuber:
