MODERATORS
Going to get downvoted for this, but it’s a private platform where free speech laws don’t apply.
Not to mention the channel owner already had the ability to delete any comment they wanted.
It is not only free speech but the fairness of a review of a product. Most people go to YouTube to see the review of a product and if comments can be manipulated that way many people will fall for a shitty product.
Nothing has really changed though, you could already delete comments to make the comment section look however you want.
