YouTube to Allow Reinstatement for Accounts Banned for Misinformation

YouTube will create a process to reinstate the accounts of content creators whose profiles were banned in recent years because they violated rules that limited misinformation about Covid-19 and the 2020 election. The change comes as YouTube has started relaxing its content moderation rules, increasing the threshold for offending content and modifying rules on Covid misinformation.
