There's a growing clarion call even on youtube itself for a boycott in response to youtube's closure of the mega-popular PPSIMMONS youtube channel.
Of course we're not going to publish the user names here but comment threads on videos around the popular video sharing site are suggestive and sometimes outright explicit, demanding that people boycott youtube for unfairly discriminating against a "Christian" channel referencing a "Call to Prayer" video as the reason.
The PPSIMMONS channel was in "good standing" at the time of its termination, had no copyright violations against it, and had recently been apologized to by youtube for their hostility against another video the week before.
This whole thing is quite bizarre and, according to the cries from users on youtube for a boycott, it could easily backfire on them, having the effect of driving video makers, good video makers, into the arms of other sites like
Dailymotion.
Best-selling author Carl Gallups was
interviewed on WND this week saying “It was as if you have a thriving business and you came to work one day and the building was burnt down and everything you had created was gone. Instantly.” Gallups was a major contributor to the PPSIMMONS content and author of "
The Magic Man in the Sky". He has his own
youtube channel and
website where many of his personal videos can be found.
In the meantime the PPSIMMONS Ministry is alive and well on
facebook and is building a vibrant presence on
Dailymotion.
Currently there are plans being drawn up by attorneys to confront youtube for this apparent violation of their own policies against discrimination. This is breaking story. Stay tuned.
