Who is Nasim Aghdam? Everything we know about the YouTube HQ shooter

Posted: 04 Apr 2018 12:30 AM PDT

Who is Nasim Aghdam? Everything we know about the YouTube HQ shooterThe woman who opened at YouTube's offices in California on Tuesday was reportedly a vegan-themed content creator who has raged against the video-sharing service for what she saw as censorship of her clips. Nasim Aghdam, 39, of Southern California, was identified by US media citing police officials as the woman who approached the campus around lunchtime and began to fire before entering the building of the Google-owned video sharing service. One man and two women were shot in the incident before the female shooter apparently committed suicide. Law enforcement officials identified the suspect to multiple media outlets and said the shooting was being investigated as a domestic dispute. Police have yet to officially the name the suspect.  YouTube shooting suspect Nasim Aghdam, who describes herself as a vegan artist, bodybuilder, and animal rights activist, often lashed out at the video platform for censoring and demonetizing her content pic.twitter.com/AsQiCz3SHB— Brianna Sacks (@bri_sacks) April 4, 2018 Aghdam had a significant internet presence before her clips were scrubbed and her account deleted in the aftermath of the shooting. She reportedly posted videos under the name "Nasim Wonder1," with some dating back to 2011. Complains about YouTube According to NBC, she says in a video posted in January 2017 that YouTube "discriminated and filtered" her content. In the video, Aghdam reportedly says her channel used to get lots of views but that after being "filtered" by the company, it received far fewer views. She complained YouTube had imposed an age restriction on one of her workout videos because it was too racy, yet it hadn't taken the same action for stars like Miley Cyrus and Nicki Minaj, whose videos, she said, were inappropriate for children. "I am being discriminated on and filtered on YouTube and I am not the only one," she said. Aghdam was angry at YouTube because it had stopped paying her for videos she posted on the platform, her father told the Bay Area News Group . The suspected shooter in today's YouTube incident has been identified. Please see press release for details - https://t.co/Xvr2l9bB9spic.twitter.com/NEBoX3WWK5— San Bruno Police (@SanBrunoPolice) April 4, 2018 On the website NasimeSabz.com,  identified as hers by the San Francisco Chronicle, she had several posts about Persian culture and veganism, interspersed with rants against YouTube. Those complaints included claims the company was not sharing enough revenue with people who create videos for the platform. "There is no free speech in real world and you will be suppressed for telling the truth that is not supported by the system," she wrote in one post. "There is no equal growth opportunity on YouTube or any other video sharing site."

Her most recent YouTube video  came three weeks ago and was titled "Leg Exercises At Home Fitness." Animal Rights activism Aghdam was also a prominent animal rights protester. She was quoted in a 2009 story in the San Diego Union-Tribune about a protest by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals against the use of pigs in military trauma training. She dressed in a wig and jeans with drops of painted "blood" on them, holding a plastic sword at the demonstration outside the Camp Pendleton Marine Corps base. "For me, animal rights equal human rights," Aghdam told the Union-Tribune at the time. A message on her YouTube accounts said the pages  were removed due to "multiple or severe violations of YouTube's policy against spam, deceptive practices, and misleading content or other Term of Service violations."

UK lab says cannot determine spy nerve agent was Russian-made

Posted: 03 Apr 2018 06:32 PM PDT

UK lab says cannot determine spy nerve agent was Russian-madeThe British military facility analysing the nerve agent used to poison a spy said on Tuesday it could not prove the substance was made in Russia, as Russian President Vladimir Putin put his hopes in a meeting with the world's chemical weapons watchdog. Gary Aitkenhead, chief executive of the Porton Down defence laboratory, told Britain's Sky News that analysts had identified the substance as military-grade Novichok, the word used for a category of nerve agents developed in Soviet times. "It is our job to provide the scientific evidence of what this particular nerve agent is, we identified that it is from this particular family and that it is a military grade, but it is not our job to say where it was manufactured," Aitkenhead said.
