Greetings,

Unfortunately I don't think an issue like this would qualify for a block by Malwarebytes as typically they only implement blocks to protect users from sites serving malicious content such as exploits, malware, PUPs (Potentially Unwanted Programs) and scams such as phishing/credit card scams etc.  Political policies and controversies like this, I believe, would fall outside the purview of Malwarebytes.

That said, there's nothing stopping you from blocking the site on your own systems using the Windows Hosts file or a software firewall if you wanted to.

If you think.....

Anyway any moderator can delete this thread

Today the video is unblocked. Censorship was lifted thanks to users pressure

That's great, and apologies that they couldn't help, but I don't think Malwarebytes gets involved in situations like this being a security vendor and all.  Of course I'm just a volunteer here, so I don't speak for the company, however I am pretty sure this wouldn't be something they'd be able to implement a block over as it's not really related to protecting systems from malware.
