Google are deliberately destroying YouTube and creating CorporateTube..
Recently PewDiePie has said he is thinking about closing his YouTube channel, his channel is the most subscribed to channel on YouTube with 50 million subs! The reason he has said he is closing his channel is because he believes that YouTube are deliberately oppressing his channel! Why would they do that to the biggest channel on YouTube? I don’t watch PewDiePie as a rule but I have watched him in the just past out of interest. I didn’t enjoy his videos and I was surprised he is popular as he is, but I was also surprised by some of the things he talks about.
PewDiePie has now joined the MASSIVE and growing list of YouTubers that feel/know that YouTube are manipulating stats, hiding videos and basically ripping people off everywhere. I believe these lost views that people have been seeing disappear go straight to shit like Vevo. These corporate music video view counts seem completely unrealistic to me, they are exaggerated bullshit.
When YouTube was young if a music video managed 20 or 30 million views it was considered good, nowadays some videos are reaching over a billion! I call BULLSHIT, Fake stats from a fake site.
I have seen videos of mine lose views especially over the last 12 months. I have 26000 subs but some of my new videos are struggling to get one hundred views! So I do believe PewDiePie is probably telling the truth. Google hate freedom and they are trying to turn YouTube in to CorporateTube! So we should dislike everything corporate, troll it and fuck them.
Subscribers are instantly removed as soon as I upload videos! In fact the last couple of months my subscriber amount has fallen! I believe Google are attempting to create some shit Amazon Prime type of shit service but we don’t want more shit like that. YouTube was better before these parasitic corporations got their disgusting reptilian hands on it, especially Google.
This is about control, Google are attempting to control what you watch and what becomes a “success.” To be successful on YouTube all we have to do is avoid honesty, political philosophy, conspiracy and suck Corporate dick, errrr no thanks I would rather be unsuccessful. Fuck YouTube, Google, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and all the rest of it. We the people know you’re full of shit, we know you’re control freaks, we know you’re liars, we know you hate the truth, we know you’re ripping off the world so FUCK YOU ALL.
Share if you agree.
ThouTube, from its inception was always about being a gate keeper.
The same with f---book.
Everyone who has tried to build their own servers to serve their own videos has found it too costly. And without a good number of viewers, and a good monthly fee, it is undoable.
So, f---book and ThouTube are losing money as a media business. Where they make their money is in REAL advertising and data collection.
Advertising is showing someone a product.
REAL advertising is showing a person a schema. Selling a complete narrative. And is about not showing you certain things as much as it is about showing you things.
F---book, ThouTube and Boogle have set themselves up to be the gatekeepers. The only thing keeping them from disappearing this second is the lack of a true competitor. And the more the crack down, and slip up, revealing some of their control mechanisms, the more people will search for an alternative. And that leads to an alternative being formed.
Its gonna get interesting.
Agreed and shared.
It is time to move to alternate "Youtubes" like PeerTube and Zeronet.
The blockchain can't host videos unfortunately, but video hosting on Steemit would be absolutely huge. Especially during times like these.
not surprised. really sucks.
The content allowed on youtube as been going downhill for a long time now. upvoted
upvoted and followed.
Most successful youtubers are moving to Patreon.

My suspicion is that youtube's censoring filters have snagged up folks like pewdiepie in the net even though his content is not challenging any kind of status quo. I wouldn't imagine that youtube/google management cares much that this stuff is backfiring. I was remembering the old days when you could view content without swimming in ads. Definitely a good time to foster alternatives. Net freedom is our birthright!
