Australian court orders Google to pay John Barilaro, a former lawmaker, $515,000, saying its failure to take down a YouTuber's"relentless, racist, vilificatory, abusive and defamatory campaign" of videos drove him out of politics.
Australia's federal court has ordered Google to pay more than $500,000 in damages to a politician after finding he had been defamed by a comedian's videos hosted on YouTube. Barilaro labelled the videos racist, and broke down in court watching one that had been filmed by friendlyjordies at a luxurious property that the politician owned and rented out on Airbnb.Barilaro settled with friendlyjordies, whose real name is Jordan Shanks, in late 2021, with the comedian issuing an apology and agreeing to edit the videos, which have now been viewed more than one million times on YouTube.
