i think it all depends on the internet culture

how much interest there is in alternative platforms

the crypto currency industry is only growing because the interest in it is growing

i believe if people are interested enough, then you cant stop it

I haven't paid much attention in it in a while, is it still growing as strong?

More people are waking up, so maybe there is hope~

im looking for data

It'll come in time

"In 2017, the cryptocurrency industry saw record-breaking growth rates in the number of market participants and market capitalization. The total number of cryptocurrencies and digital assets on exchanges soared by 216%, from 617 to 1,335, and currently stands at 1,531.[v][vi] Total market capitalization increased by 3,363% in 2017, with Bitcoin’s market cap jumping 1,364% and the Altcoin side shooting 16,695%."

Oh, you meant like that xD

i wonder if theres any data on youtube competitors growth rate

Darn it @_@ GPUs are going to stay expensive TwT

Bitchute?

Or do you believe there's a stronger competitor

guess i cant post pics.
it looks like d.tube's traffic has increased 400% in a year

but the numbers are pretty small

lets see about bitchute

Haven't heard of DTube at all

But that's probably due to my social circle

looks like the competitors are down at single digit millions, going from about 1 million to 4 million in a year

but the graphs stop before the alex jones ban, i wonder if theres been any huge spike

I sure hope so

I'm sending an email to the Masterpiece Cake Shop in Colorado. I think they've been arguing their point all wrong, and want them to re-emphasize a point. Interested to see if anyone disagrees with me...

```Hi, I'm a distant supporter of yours. I've been watching your Supreme Court case, and the current case as well.

I believe a fair bit of your continued problem with the State of Colorado actually stems from the supreme court decision not being nearly as decisive as it should have been. As a spectator, I think it's due to the argument that your defense had made. They made a valiant effort to establish your work as Art, and I think she had a decent point, but she made the mistake of linking it specifically to what you do. I think there's a broader definition that can be made that would protect others in similar situations.

The Wedding Cake, itself, is a symbol for a ritual to start with - the rite of marriage. Whenever you are asked to create a custom cake to commemorate a wedding you disagree with, it's not so much that you're not willing to sell them a cake, but that you aren't willing to create a cake with the symbolism that they request. If someone orders a cake that's pink on the inside and blue on the outside, that is, in fact, a request that's just fine. But when it's given the symbolism of a transgender confirmation, that symbolism is what you object to. That very symbolism is what makes your cakes Art.

If a push was made to make that symbolism, or rejection of it, a part of protected speech, I believe it would protect you from these frivolous attempts to shut down your store. Just a thought.```

makes sense to me

Seems more or less sound

sounds good

feels okay

Tastes apt

Yeah, sensible

but I don't like that it needs to be done

Seems more like a workaround. Like arm straps on an AR pistol.

@RyeNorth I know you mean well, but the lawyers at the ADF probably have thought a good bit about the specific wording and are looking to get as broad a precedent as possible. I'd argue throwing something to the ADF is probably a better long term strategy.

So evidently, Discord won't let you log in if you use Tor. It appears to confuse their systems. Hm.

now they know you use tor

everybody knows sillicon valley and the gobt have a conjointed database of ppl using tors, they spy on them

now you

Well they cant prove what you use tor for

thats why they spy on you

if you want ot use tor, have a separate computer with nothing that can tie you with it on it

something you can light on fire or throw to the bottom of the ocean like in ted 2

Thats basically everyone with the brave browser
