Washington: Google-owned YouTube on Tuesday temporarily suspended President Donald Trump's channel and removed a video for violating its policy against inciting violence.
"In light of concerns about the ongoing potential for violence, we removed new content uploaded to Donald J Trump's channel for violating our policies," YouTube said in a statement.
The channel is now "temporarily prevented from uploading new content for a 'minimum' of 7 days," the statement read.
Facebook last week suspended Trump's Facebook and Instagram accounts following the violent invasion of the US Capitol by a mob of his supporters, which temporarily disrupted the certification of President-elect Joe Biden's election victory.
Twitter went a step further by deleting Trump's account, depriving him of his favorite platform.
Trump also was hit with suspensions by services like Snapchat and Twitch.
