The Internet exploded over the weekend after several popular YouTube users revealed that the company was blocking videos with any type of LGBTQ content from it's "restricted mode," regardless of whether they contained any "mature content."

This is outrageous and clearly discriminatory. There's nothing "inappropriate" about simply discussing LGBTQ issues. YouTube is such an important platform precisely because it gives young people the ability to learn about the world. It's especially important for LGBTQ youth to be able to access positive videos from people who share their identities.

YouTube responded to the outcry with a half-hearted apology, but they still haven't fixed the problem. Sign the petition now to tell Google and YouTube: "Censoring LGBTQ videos in restricted mode is discrimination. Immediately stop enforcing this policy and apologize to your users and creators."
