Alex Jones, the founder, owner and star of conspiracy site Infowars, has been kicked off YouTube. 

The Alex Jones Channel, Infowars' biggest YouTube account with 2.4 million subscribers, now simply bears the message "this account has been terminated for violating YouTube's Community Guidelines." YouTube has a "three strikes" policy that terminates accounts after three violations of its community guidelines within three months. Its removal of Alex Jones' channel follows Apple, Spotify and Facebook all removing Infowars content from their platforms.
