You did, but there are people here who know that is not what you meant.

If only life was as simple as taking you at your word Biff.

Google's policy can successfully be inferred from the plethora of results obtained by searching on Google for the term 'F1 protest' using the 'video' tab.

You really are unable to admit when you are wrong aren't you?

"Inferred"? that means making an assumption about googles policy. That is not good enough. Please provide a link to a statement about their policy. Otherwise we can all make assumptins about anything we choose, then claim it as fact.

Yes, inferred ,as in the video in question is freely available through a Google search and therefore it is entirely reasonable to infer that Google have not 'banned' it.

You would have to either be completely ignorant of how to use Google or else pursuing an agenda in order to claim that Google was involved in banning this video.

Which makes me wonder what other half-truths and mis-directions spill from the same fonts.

Ok, if it stops you dancing with angels on a pin-head substitute 'took down' for 'banned'. Happy?

As I said, they do no harm, and I kinda go along with that most of the time, without irony. That's why I'm happy to use Google for a couple of hours a day, whereas I never shop at Tesco or vote Tory.
