Cryptocurrency Ban? The Conspiracy is Real! Google, YouTube, Facebook, Twitter...

cryptoplayhouse (54)in #cryptocurrency • 6 years ago

Google, Facebook and Twitter have an active conspiracy to ban crypto content...yes, not just ads! Let me show you what they're doing!

Let me start with Twitter. We don't dedicate a lot of time to distribute content there, but still send our Instagram cryptocurrency posts to the Twitter platform with the use of IFTTT scripts connected to the Twitter API. However, we did noticed that (starting on the first week of March) that when the captions contained crypto related hashtags, Twitter would block the posts. We witnessed the same test performed on non-crypto pages and Twitter allowed those posts to go through without shadow banning or filtering. It's the crypto related tags that they're blocking.

Facebook was the first social platform that came out and announced the ban of crypto related ads this year, including ads about ICOs, Bitcoin, etc. Despite the fact that they can block whatever ads they like since it's their business, given Facebook's bad reputation with data breach issues (including Russia and the Trump election), can you really trust them with any of your organic content?

Even though our crypto content is pretty much buried on Facebook, we do rely strongly on Instagram [which Facebook owns] to disseminate our viral visuals. Unfortunately, many influencers and content creators worry that Facebook will eventually transform Instagram into a Facebook near-replica. What we're seeing all of the sudden on Instagram is that our explorer feed, which was previously filled with crypto related content [since that's the content that we mostly engage with], is now practically void of relevancy. Instead, we're seeing luxury related posts and other practically irrelevant content....anything except crypto! For a while now, rumors abound regarding a more sinister type of “soft ban” or shadowban on Instagram that mysteriously filters out content.

Google is owned by the conglomerate Alphabet Inc. Alphabet Inc also owns YouTube, the second most popular search engine on the planet. While Google announced that they're also going to be banning crypto related ads, you can see that they have been buying up blockchain based companies left and right for years. They also recently announced that they're actively looking to create their own blockchain for the cloud (Hurray for Google-chain Lol)! So Google, do you love or hate crypto? Which one is it?!

The crypto conspiracy continues with YouTube. YouTube announced that their crypto ad-banning campaign would start in June. However, we have noticed that since the middle of March, the visibility of our cryptocurrency videos is nonexistent. We are experiencing, all of the sudden, lower views that when the channel first launched!

We have also been on a four-plus month wait for the monetization of our channel!

It is obvious that the social networks feel threatened by crypto and Bitcoin and are restricting our freedom of speech. Their goal is to keep the little guys out. Despite this fact, they want to get their own hands all over their own crypto tech. It's an all-out war, but don't let them silence us!

This is one of the reasons we are looking at decentralized options like Steemit and Dtube to distribute our content going forward. Join us in this effort and share this video with as many people as possible.

No firsthand experience, since I don't own an active YouTube channel, but it is clear for all to see what's going on. All my favorite channels are experiencing this, especially if they do any "sensitive" political content. We should not underestimate the power of these search-engine giants; more and more the internet behaves like Television in the sense that Big Money ultimately decides what we're allowed to see, hear and talk about. That's why this is so important:

"This is one of the reasons we are looking at decentralized options like Steemit and Dtube to distribute our content going forward."

I hope enough people become aware of this, but the fact that we're all here on Steemit makes em feel more optimistic about the future!

Keep up the good work!

Thank you for sharing your experience. Many people look at the degree of social response as a vote of confidence. As long as the content is not manipulated, it does serve as a quick-and-dirty way to assess how people feel about certain things. Once these "giants" manipulate things to their liking, social data becomes unreliable. This is a big problem and they cannot be allowed to do this, whether or not they're public/private companies.

Lol about the sweater. Yes, the social media/search engine conspiracy is real, especially when they're messing around with organic content, not just paid ads.
