Exactly what, specifically were the complaints? List them in detail.

InfoWars has been banned from Facebook, YouTube, Apple podcasts, Twitter and other platforms for violating hate speech policies.

And I always thought Free Speech was the sign of an enlightened society. Silly me, I guess it's time to start burning books again 😳

Why do I doubt it was the users that were complaining? The privatization of free speech will have consequences

Dang, just when I was getting ready to pull the trigger on a Roku unit. Why, oh why do companies bend over the barrel for those cry babies.

I don't believe they had people threatening them he has more followers than the news channels, that's what this is about.

👏👏👏👍👍👍

Good to see hatemongering get its just rewards...

$ROKU FAIL

Roku pulls InfoWars show by conspiracy theorist Alex Jones from streaming serviceRoku has pulled Infowars from its platform. It initially defended adding the show by Jones — who has called the Sandy Hook massacre a hoax — by saying it does not “censor based on viewpoint” but changed course after complaints. Anybody who says the Sandy Hook massacre was a hoax is a lunatic. InfoWars isnt a viewpoint - its a conspiracy theory channel I'm sure Roku will be adding the Q Anon channel to take the place of InfoWars It's pretty sad when you get canned from the Walmart of streaming applications.
