so for example, Matt Christensen's > Videos tab would have an injected bar at the top
and that would be "heres all the videos that youtube attempted to censor"
Another idea: Injection of REPLACEMENT SUPERCHATS service. essentially anyone who has the extension installed will be using an alt service that is NOT censored and NOT naughty word scanned
and we only take 15% fee instead of Google's 30%
CC,
I got a YouTube channel, just like half the world... I don't want to spend 3 weeks reloading all that. ¿You gonna add a mirror option?
Oh yeah, we could add a "batch upload all previous content with this deployment template"
I think one of the things that holds back BitChute is the lack of a recommendation feature based on trending videos
Ya, ok, sure. Whatever it is you call it.
Recommendations introduce people to new content, that is very useful
basically itd work by using a youtube downloader service, and then just use the upload API and upload the video using the same Title, Subtitle, Tags, whatever
Recommendations is actually the thing i started this project with
that and search
But developing a provably politically neutral algorithm is not easy and it actually could cause MORE damage if i accidentally create a right-wing content bubble
So i have lists of mined content creators from the left wing, I dont have that many, maybe 50 or so
But we could also have a super simple website, where you could go and just drop your channel URL or youtube username into the submission form, and "sign yourself up as an alternative content creator"
So ANY creator, left, right, center, CIA operative, anybody, could register their content as alt media content in the server side content indexer and serve as the suggestions / "up next" video provider
Anybody but Main Stream News.
I think users should be able to customize their recommendations and have all that info locally
Wait, ¿how do you stop them?
Yes, I would like to do what youtube SAYS they want to do but are lying about
isnt there already dissenter
maybe plug into that whole jive
"tanning is f or hicks and poor people". Classic Blonde
Oh also, I have 100% working a checkbox called "Decorporatizer" that eliminates ALL YouTube promoted MSM channels, which is just being done by a 2-hop web crawling algorithm, that finds all accounts associated with all the usual suspects CNN MSNBC FOX NBC CBS The Guardian Vox RT (the only good one ironically)
like MSNBC has like 25 affiliated accounts, MSNBC Business, MSNBC Breaking, MSNBC Finance, blah blah
also hellyeahbear, what do you mean?
I thought about asking dissenter if I could get a copy of a query of all the logs of youtube video urls -> UploaderID -> Distinct
Basically a mega dump of alt-media sources and stuff that people are interested in surrounding politics. Gaming, idk what else,
But i doubt theyd give it to me

@Dangerous Spaces is Sargon... 😲😲😲😲
Another angle i took for a while is automating the recovery of deleted youtube videos. I have a 7-stage algorithm that tries basically different approaches to mine / web scrape / web api automate discovery of hidden, mirrored, backed up, or archive.org wayback machine'd copies of videos
matt kills the joke again
It only has about a 55% success rate depending on the time and date it was uploaded
That'd be wonderful
if its super old, I can recover the raw SWF stream, they arent even deleted. If theyre from like 2005-2009, I can Ajax exploit them and download a copy of the video. If theyre backed up to archive.org, I can scan there and download. Also i have a couple services i found that were originally mirroring content in order to circumvent country-specific restrictions on youtube streams, but can be leveraged for anticensorship purposes. Also theres a service called MirrorTube but that has a super low success rate
Sounds really cool
So if I'm understanding you mostly right, you're associating mirrors instead of hosting the videos themselves
Well i could ALSO host them as the last line of defense
Kind of like how Google used to be just an indexer
i know a guy who works with the NFL hosting provider service for streaming
