YouTube has banned gun conversion tutorials from its platform shortly after a mass shooting in Las Vegas. The videos specifically being targeted by this ban instruct user on how to potentially increase the damage that can be done by their weapons using modifications like bump stocks.
No new policy has been implemented to deal with this sort of content. Rather, YouTube says these videos fall under its policy against "harmful and dangerous content," it's just cracking down on them now.
The Las Vegas shooter is known to have utilized bump stocks, which help a shooter use a semi-automatic weapon more like an automatic weapon.
