Derby Telegraph: Video that taught Derby terrorist how to make a bomb 'still on Google'
A bomb-making manual believed to have been downloaded by a Derby man who was days away from launching a massive terrorist attack is still on Google, it has been claimed. David Ibsen, executive director of the Counter Extremism Project, which helps draw up legislation to combat online extremism, said: "The availability of (the bomb making) video is deeply concerning to the Counter Extremism Project (CEP) and the general public. We believe that this ISIS bombing making video is the one Munir Mohammed downloaded in November 2016 when planning an attack. Over the past 14 months, our researchers have found the video nine separate times on Google-owned platforms, with a live version available on Google Drive as recently as last Thursday. Online propaganda often serves as a gateway to further radicalisation offline. What we need is greater transparency and consistent enforcement. We need companies like Facebook to take responsibility for the content available on its platform.”
