If Youtube was to go away today, do the guys who upload videos on this platform stop being content creators? This is myth I want to dispell. Now to answer your question. Yes, it will be tough and disruptive should you start distributing you

> If a creator gets kicked out however, their livelihood is threatened No. There are numerous providers that can host your videos. For a small fee. This mentality is what gives Google such pseudo-power.

Okay. So basically useless. And not exactly anonymous since to use it in any way would ultimately defeat the purpose.

Probably won't be able to afford their top-dollar CEO if Google ever pulled the rug. Mozilla is totally dependent on this search deal.

If this guy was a lawyer representing me in a court, I be in jail by noon. His defense seems to call on the reader's (jury) optimistic nature too much when the stakes on the line are cut and dry. All jokes aside, excusing Signal for do

Privacy or any other illusion of it on the internet, is mostly a game of musical chairs. If it's not GAFAM getting your data, it's 3 letter agencies. Or worse, both. True anonymity has no place on the clearnet. The sooner we come

People don't put up with ads. They are forced upon them. Many of them with no knowledge of how to block them. To them, ads are part and parcel of "using the internet". Some of them hate ads. But not for technical reasons thou

Try creating a new facebook account today. The site won't let you do that without verifying a phone number. The difficulty level increases if you try doing so behind a vpn. Same goes for other SM sites like Twitter.

Wow. You've gone really off-tangent with this but I'll try to put one back in. While your proposals are noble, none of them will solve the inequality problem in the broad sense. Might eradicate low levels of poverty. However I sti

Video tearing could be because of xorg. Try Wayland with HW decode, you have to manually enable it. Both chrome & Firefox support this now. My experience is different from yours. With Wayland I had smoother graphics than xorg.

Price you pay for being an early adopter. BTC is just not cut out for fast or even smooth money transactions. Though, Tesla should be able to sort this quickly once the funds crawl to their wallet, don't see any cause for alarm here.
