1 - You worked really hard on your YouTube channel. Starting out with just a few subscribers, you've built a thriving community and were beginning to make a living on your videos when... Three strikes and you are OUT! We've all read the accounts of channels being shut down for not being "advertiser-friendly" after years of operation. Well, Steemit has a sister service called DTube as a brand-new alternative to the whims of the Google-owned media giant. Content that was just fine six months ago is now being flagged by the Gods of YouTube costing you much-needed revenue. It's almost as if you have to learn to read the minds at corporate headquarters to save your channel from being shut down.

2 - Like to blog about controversial subjects? Maybe you're fond of discussing UFO's, missing children, Pizzagate or The Montauk Chair. Not anymore! Slapped down by the mods at Facebook for any of the above or even for not using your Real Name yet another door is slammed shut.

3 - The bicycle-seat-sniffing, corporate data-whores who love to collect your personal information and sell it to the highest bidder, have no home here on Steemit. With everything living on the blockchain, there is nothing for them to call their own. Your data belongs to you.

4 - Steemit allows you to put your content to work for you. Instead of pouring articles, music, and video into the "Facebags" of the world, you can earn from everything you create for yourself.
