As mentioned in my video today on YouTube, I've been helping a new channel try to share some very old music that is quite special to me. It's been problem after problem with YouTube.

Have a look at this...

...and tell me why you think it's banned?

YouTube is flagging old Irish folk songs as being "support or recruitment" for "violent criminal organizations."

Yes, these songs are political — much of the Irish music I like is — but you can't join the IRA without a time machine, not to mention the songs that are getting banned aren't "Broad Black Brimmer" or "Men Behind the Wire" but things like the song at the above link... "Grace"

Have a look at the video at that Google drive link and tell me what you think?

@deviantollam I called a Googler that works in the appropriate department and your problems seems to be with the UK government, they have been calling any Patrick Pearse and James Connolly in a good light song, basically terrorism propaganda. Al-Qaeda and the Easter Rising are the same as far as the UK is concerned. The person in question might be wrong, we are like moderately friends, and I'm not willing to vouch for this.

@novarivera I appreciate the additional context.
