On December 9, we started applying our Presidential Election Integrity policy (below) to the 2020 U.S. presidential election, meaning we remove content that misleads people by alleging that widespread fraud or errors changed the outcome of the 2020 U.S. presidential election uploaded on or after December 9. As we ramp up our enforcement we'll remove violative videos without giving a strike. We will begin issuing strikes for new content uploaded after Inauguration Day, January 20, 2021.
If you're posting content
Don’t post content on YouTube if it fits any of the descriptions noted below.
Presidential Election Integrity: Content that advances false claims that widespread fraud, errors, or glitches changed the outcome of any past U.S. presidential election (Note: this applies to elections in the United States only). For the U.S. 2020 presidential election, this applies to content uploaded on or after December 9, 2020.

Claims that a candidate only won a swing state in the U.S. 2020 presidential election due to voting machine glitches that changed votes.
Claims that dead people voted in numbers that changed the outcome of the U.S. 2016 presidential election.
Claims that fake ballots were dumped to give one candidate enough votes to win a state in a past U.S. presidential election.
We may allow content such as the examples above if it includes countervailing views or sufficient context in the images or audio of the video itself. Providing it in the title or description may be insufficient.

I guess somebody has to do it.
Betters? Um, not so much, IMO.
