I'd love to see "How we stopped to be an economic parasite and started to pay taxes in markets of our operation, so public healthcare and services could serve the society of which Google is a part of"

Do you really think that lack of money in the US government is the reason for the health system failure?
Sadly over some level of corruption more money just doesn't help.
For me it's quite interesting what's Austria is doing, it's the only western country that is taking the virus seriously, or one of the few. In theory in a few days we'll see the difference, but in a week for sure.
US is spending more on health per capita than any other country in the world. That money would be far enough to have a health system that may be not perfect, but similar to other developed countries that take care of all people (and produce a higher lifespen).

> We’re also removing COVID-19 misinformation on YouTube
Google is way more effective removing the monetization of a video because there is 2 seconds that sound like a copyrighted song than anything else. Because it is not a problem of removing content, it is a business model problem. YouTube incentivizes highly controversial videos and scare videos as they gather many views quickly.
Traditional media with its curated content creates an editorial line that needs to defend and can easily have a big backslash. YouTube continues to be immune to consequences to the extremist content that it publishes.
YouTube should be a platform were you pay-to-publish videos and you are responsible for the content. Instead of that, YouTube is a publisher with all the rights but no duties.

Because that is a way easier problem to solve. I'm not up on modern AI, but I can imagine figuring out how to catch unlicensed material when the owners provided me a copy. The idea of understanding the factual correctness of any arbitrary video seems impossible

Absolutely, yes. What's the biggest criticism people have against Bernie's medicare for all plan?
