Like removal of gun channels.

2018-06-17 16:40:06 UTC  

YouTube is better. But it scares me with the actions

2018-06-17 16:40:10 UTC  

I dread the day they remove Forgotten Weapons

2018-06-17 16:40:17 UTC  

they are playing with fire, youtube has too much power

2018-06-17 16:40:44 UTC  

And well. Pornhub isnt gonna go ahead and create a proper competitor

2018-06-17 16:41:01 UTC  

pornhub might be the only other outfit that could actually challenge youtube

2018-06-17 16:41:09 UTC  

Dont be too sure

2018-06-17 16:41:34 UTC  

once again, porn is humanities salvation?

2018-06-17 16:41:56 UTC  

No idea, they do crazy things at times

2018-06-17 16:42:14 UTC  

I'm just saying they have the experience to run a highly used video sharing site

2018-06-17 16:42:34 UTC  

but that being said

2018-06-17 16:42:37 UTC  

there's no money in YT

2018-06-17 16:43:08 UTC  

I really think there isn't, half the people block ads and advertisers don't like half the content being associated with them

2018-06-17 16:43:19 UTC  

more than you'd think

2018-06-17 16:43:35 UTC  

I just don't think there's enough money to support anything like YT without money from Alphabet

2018-06-17 16:43:47 UTC  

Forgotten Weapons guy uploaded a few vids up there

2018-06-17 16:43:50 UTC  

anything else would be dark web shit to a normal internet users

2018-06-17 16:43:51 UTC  

yes but how does Alphabet make its money?

2018-06-17 16:43:55 UTC  

search

2018-06-17 16:43:58 UTC  

and user info

2018-06-17 16:44:00 UTC  

Even had fun with the tags

2018-06-17 16:44:09 UTC  

exactly, and they get that through youtube aswell

2018-06-17 16:44:26 UTC  

but that's just a source of the data, not a direct making money off of ads

2018-06-17 16:44:30 UTC  

Like it or not, PH had alot of shit before YT added them in

2018-06-17 16:44:38 UTC  

Like video preview

2018-06-17 16:44:40 UTC  

and alphabet is probably the only company that can do that because they own the ad agency

2018-06-17 16:44:45 UTC  

yes but they can use that data for profit

Youtube doesn't make a lot directly

2018-06-17 16:44:49 UTC  

correct

2018-06-17 16:44:59 UTC  

but its information is a valuable asset

2018-06-17 16:45:01 UTC  

so you'd have to have another company that had a secondary revenue source

2018-06-17 16:45:09 UTC  

that would make money off of the primary site

2018-06-17 16:45:15 UTC  

how many of those exist

2018-06-17 16:45:17 UTC  

very very few

2018-06-17 16:45:19 UTC  

oh absolutely, Youtube couldnt survive on its own like this

2018-06-17 16:45:37 UTC  

I'm saying, the chances of a competitor are slim, right now

2018-06-17 16:46:08 UTC  

and any p2p competitor or blockchain etc is just going to be seen as dark web shit to a normal user that goes to YT

2018-06-17 16:46:20 UTC  

i.e. grandma will continue to goto YT

2018-06-17 16:46:29 UTC  

It would need a different business plan atleast

2018-06-17 16:46:29 UTC  

You need the hardware

2018-06-17 16:47:11 UTC  

Its a lot of hardware. We talking petabytes of storage, and supercomputers for handling their video indexing and searching.

2018-06-17 16:47:35 UTC  

And years of development in their search algorithms.
