OPPORTUNITY: InfoWars Barred From Advertising with Google -- Looking for Alternatives

Google AdRoll recently decided to ban InfoWars and Alex Jones from advertising through their service.

Obviously, this creates a heavy bottleneck on their ability to generate revenue and fund their work. Alex Jones stated that the previous year netted around $3M which was budgeted to expanding their operations this year. Operations are still being expanded, but revenues need to increase.

This creates an opportunity for Steemit.

Regardless of what you feel about Alex Jones and InfoWars, this is a perfect use case opportunity for the Steemit community to demonstrate to a major player like Infowars that they can a) generate additional revenue through upvotes/digital currencies, and b) lock their content into a decentralized, corruption-resistant blockchain.

Even more interestingly, David Robert Steele had recently mentioned Steemit (interview video below) as a possible replacement for Facebook/Twitter/Reddit/YouTube, which has recently become censorship prone with the heat of the battles increasing between the new Trump administration and ... well, everyone in the Globalist camp, which wields a tremendous amount of power (including the Silicon Sultans listed above).

I would strongly recommend that everyone reading this attempt to contact people in the InfoWars team and spread the word about the possible opportunities the Steemit platform presents. It would open the community up to a HUGE audience as well.

cough-cough Ned and Dan cough-cough

Alex Jones briefly mentioned Steemit in one of his rants😉

What did he say about it?

Good point.

I posted comments on some of their articles last week when this first happened recommending they look into moving their posts, and comments into Steemit. Could be done pretty easy. Or a side chain like Golos.io uses.

This would be pretty cool and a great oppertunity as well !! 👍👌

Second coming of Berwick?
