>Making his content harder to get will reduce his legitimacy.

The hegemony trying to shut up someone's political speech only decreases legitimacy across people that were never going to believe him in the first place.

For everyone else, the conspiracy theory that The Powers That Be don't want anyone to hear his message just became conspiracy fact thanks to YouTube, Apple et al.



Jones is going to whine about being a victim regardless, since that's part of his character. He should be treated the same way nazi websites are and make it harder for him to make a profit off his bullshit.

As I said though, he used his platform to abuse people and should have been banned a long time ago, regardless of his lame conspiracy theories.
