Is it time to stop watching all YouTube clips now, too?

'Iran-linked AI Lego video account removed by YouTube'

"Explosive Media, one of several groups using artificial intelligence to create pro-Iran videos with the look and feel of The Lego Movie, said that YouTube has suspended its account."

"The group's accounts on X, Instagram, TikTok, Telegram and UpScrolled, however, have not been affected."

" 'Our YouTube channel just got taken down again for 'violent content,'' the group posted on X."
