Former YouTube CEO who cracked down on ‘vaccine misinformation’ dies at 56 after two year battle with cancer

Susan Wojcicki news

Susan Wojcicki, the former chief executive of YouTube and a long-time Google executive, passed away on Saturday at the age of 56 after a two-year battle with lung cancer.

Her husband, Dennis Troper, shared the news on Facebook, expressing deep sorrow over the loss of his wife of 26 years and mother of their five children.

Wojcicki, one of the most prominent women in the tech industry, joined Google in 1999 and played a crucial role in its growth. She became the CEO of YouTube in 2014, where she oversaw significant changes in the platform, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Under her tenure YouTube implemented strict content censorship policies, which allegedly included the removal of over one million videos related to vaccine safety that were flagged as spreading “misinformation.”

Wojcicki stepped down from her role at YouTube in 2023 to focus on her health. Her 19-year old son Marco Troper died suddenly, allegedly of a drug overdose, in February 2024. Her sister Anne Wojcicki co-founded the genetic testing company 23andMe.

  1. It might be completely unconnected, but she died of cancer after having it for 2 years. The vaccine is known to cause turbo cancers. I wonder if she was actually vaccinated?

    We’ve all seen this a few times, people on the MSM, social media and some VIPs boast how safe the vaccine is and then die shortly thereafter. Perhaps some of these people really do not know the dangers (i.e. they are not “in the loop”) but because of their large egos they are more than willing to force it on the rest of us.
