SAN BRUNO, CALIFORNIA — TomoNews has found yet more channels linked to or affiliated with the Syrian government are on YouTube. <br /><br />And this could be a problem for the Alphabet-owned platform. U.S. sanctions prohibit American companies from providing services to Syria without obtaining a license from the Treasury Department.<br /><br />Several of the channels found are linked to the General Organization Of Radio and TV - Syria, or ORTAS for short. ORTAS is specifically listed on the U.S. Treasury Department's list of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons.<br /><br />Now, to be clear, just because we didn't see ads on some of the following channels doesn't mean there are none. It also doesn't mean Syria's getting a cut, but YouTube is.
