researchers demonstrating how a newly discovered side channel in Apple's A- and M-series CPUs

Google has removed a video posted by academic researchers demonstrating how a newly discovered side channel in Apple's A- and M-series CPUs can be used to steal a password.

I thought for sure the removal was a mistake, but a Google representative told me the video was removed for violating a term of service barring "demonstrating how to use computers or information technology to steal credentials, compromise personal data, or cause serious harm to others."

The video, demonstrating important research by @genkin, @YuvalYarom , @themadstephan and jason kim, is here:

Just to underscore how arbitrary and patently asinine Google's ToS enforcement is here, two additional videos the researchers posted demonstrating the same side channel remain available.

I wonder how researchers from #projectzero feel about this. Is there any chance any of them can intervene? 🧐✌️
