But that's not what this headline is claiming. It's claiming that PeerTube will give you control of your videos. That's the one thing that p2p services do not and cannot ever do. Putting content on p2p is synonymous with giving up control of it forever.
- eitland 5y agoOn YouTube you cannot control anything: - YouTube can remove it - people can store offline copies On Peertube at least YouTube can't take it down which means you have more control over it.
- hannasanarion 5y agoYou don't think that youtube channels have the ability to take down or edit their own videos? What exactly do you think "control" means?
- southerntofu 5y agoI realize you're probably just trolling, but Peertube also has a button to delete your own video. The instance will stop serving/seeding it so even if some people hold a copy it will be hard if possible at all (even with the info hash) to access it. Of course some people could upload it again someplace else and there's pretty much nothing you can do about it. Not that different from traditional tape media and CD/DVD.
- betwixthewires 5y agoThis argument is weaksauce. Putting anything publicly on the internet immediately means relinquishing control of it. P2P has nothing to do with that. "Take back control" is geared towards hosts. You can run your own tube site. That's what the slogan is talking about. Also, peertube is no more p2p than bitchute. It uses webRTC to offload server load onto clients for popular videos, that's it.
