Man drives 3,300 miles cross-country with THREE baseball bats to confront Google for shutting down his YouTube channel
Kyle Long, 33, of Maine, charged with making criminal threats against Google
•Arrested Sunday near Google's main campus in Mountain View, California
•Long was allegedly angry that YouTube, which is owned by Google, had shut down his channel and hurt him financially
•Police in Mountain View had been warned about Long by officers in his hometown in Maine and in Iowa
•Last April, disgruntled YouTuber Nasim Aghdam shot and wounded three people at the YouTube campus in San Bruno before killing herself

A man who drove more than 3,300 miles from Maine to California to confront Google officials over the fate of his YouTube channel has been arrested with three baseball bats in his car's trunk.

Police in Mountain View, the San Francisco-area city where Google's sprawling campus is located, were warned by two out-of-state agencies that Kyle Long was on his way and arrested him Sunday on suspicion of making criminal threats.

According to a press release from the Mountain View Police Department, the 33-year-old Waterville, Maine, resident was upset because his YouTube channel had been shut down.


He allegedly told his hometown police that he would get violent if his Google confrontation didn't go well.

Google is the parent company of YouTube. The company's Mountain View headquarters employs as many as 20,000 people

They don't really care whether the truth gets out, because the public no longer knows what's meant by "the truth."

Well, I mean, no one can tell the difference anymore between what's real and what's fake.

Anyway, the point is, I can tell you all of this, right out in the open, because it doesn't matter who knows about it. They won't know whether to believe it or not.-

No, but if you make threats that you're going to do just that, and then you take concrete steps to do it like putting baseball bats in your car and drive across the country to confront the person or company you threatened, then that's a very different matter. Context matters.

The only way to bring em down is, stop using their service.
Well, at least until thats considered a "threat", just wait.
They already have own DNS.
I doubt we can create a alternate tcp before they grabbed every single free bit in the internet infrastructure.
Even GLP is using their services with that captcha thing and who knows with what else.

Let ignorance be your bat.
