Facebook today followed the lead of Apple, Spotify, and YouTube in removing four Pages belonging to Infowar‘s Alex Jones, claiming those Pages repeatedly violated Community Standards against hateful and dehumanizing speech. Notably, this comes after Facebook‘s head honcho said the site would willingly host controversial content including Holocaust denial.

Within days of Jones’ lawyers desperately trying to convince everyone he doesn’t really mean what he espouses on his popular show, Jones has been summarily axed from several popular online platforms either over the weekend or today (Spotify had previously removed certain episodes of “The Alex Jones Show” last week and removed the whole show today). Each company cited Jones’ predilection for hate speech as the reason for its ban.
