Ye song glorifying Hitler gets millions of views on X while other platforms struggle to remove it
Spotify, SoundCloud and other platforms have pulled the song, but its spread underscores the challenges tech platforms face in removing content that violate their policies.
On Thursday, Ye uploaded a video for the song on X, where it remained up as of Friday evening and received more than 6.5 million views.
