RE: What You NEED To Start Creating Video Content For D.Tube (Camera, Lighting, Audio, etc.)
Reading your user name was the first thing i did. I agree with you. Youtube has been very restrictive lately. They are censoring a lot of content because of advertisers and all. This is what happens when a business model depends mostly on Wall street.
Exactly, money talks. Like I said, I may not agree with the content that they censor and demonetize, but these people aren't broadcasting child pornography, or plotting to overthrow the government. They just have different opinions and political views. I've seen people put in Facebook jail for the most ridiculous reasons, it's crazy, and Facebook, Google/YouTube, and Twitter are all exactly the same.
I saw that Facebook is now, with the help of Israel, removing all content that shows Israel in a bad light. I won't get into the whole Israel/Palestine mess, but in the US at least, at one time anyway, that's how you kept the government (somewhat) in check, by exposing their dirty deeds.
That's why I see Steemit, and DTube as very important. There's freedom to post pretty much what you want. Unfortunately, with these whale accounts having so much power, as evident in these Flagging Wars, I can see the day when certain groups invest heavily into Steem, and/or buy some of these extremely powerful whale accounts, and effectively censoring that they find objectionable here also. Unfortunately, money always rules.
I tend to be the paranoid, and prone to believe at least some conspiracy theories type though. lol
