YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki said Thursday that the ban on former President Donald Trump will be lifted when the “risk of violence” is deemed by the company to have decreased.
YouTube, alongside many other social media sites, suspended Trump’s account following unrest at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, which Trump was accused by congressional Democrats and some Republicans of inciting. According to Wojcicki, the suspension will not be permanent because of the platform’s “three strikes” rule.
