According to TMZ, Nasim Aghdam was identified as of Tuesday’s shooter. Aghdam was a reportedly active YouTube user who posted videos bashing the company for allegedly age restricting her videos and limiting the views she received on her content.
In one video, Aghdam claims a workout tutorial she posted was unfairly censored just because of her beleifs. She claims she contacted YouTube’s support staff on several occasions about the censorship and age restrictions and was told her videos included inappropriate content.
Aghdam argued that videos of Nicki Minaj and mentioned Miley Cyrus as singers whose content was on YouTube and not censored as strictly as hers was.
Other videos Aghdam posted featured her dressed in traditional Muslim clothing.
