Just to make sure I understand correctly: The particular problem refers to this specific 451 report, and the underlying problem refers to people in general giving false reports to Google and Google failing to have an adequate mechanism for dealing with them?

Front page now works fine.
TASing is like making a film: only the best takes are shown in the final movie.

This particular problem has been dealt with. However the underlying problem is still a problem.

We are more and more going into a direction where not only are big corporations and governments censoring people more and more (using all kinds of excuses to circumvent constitutional and universal human rights), but moreover, politically motivated mobs of people are given way too much censorial power through automation. Make a post or video expressing an opinion that a certain mob of people doesn't like? They'll just mass-flag it, and the automation will censor it for them, regardless of whether it was actually infringing content, or whether it was just something that upsets them. At this point there is still, sometimes, the recourse to dispute the censorship. However, I fear that as this becomes more and more common, corporations will start paying less and less attention to these disputes (perhaps, if for no other reasons, due to lack of resources. But, I fear, in increasing manner because of the political bias of the employees and the corporations themselves.)
