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

which is "give the user the most amount of control over their user experience"

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

and he can give me lots of cloud space and he loves the idea

That would be nice

Probably the most expensive part for any platform wanting to replace YouTube is the space to host videos

If the NFL saves the internet I'll have to actually watch football

Has anyone talked about Peter Thiel on Google yet?

^^^

That is big news

Regarding them possibly colluding with China

No they were straight up infiltrated by chinese intelligence i believe

Well yes, that too, but from what I heard Peter Thiel was saying they're actively cooperating with the Chinese government/military

That would be in treason territory, whereas just being infiltrated gives them plausible deniability

While we were trying to start a war with Russia, we forgot to pay attention to China, the 2nd leader in surveillance and counterintelligence operations only behind debatably Israel

I dont 10000% trust Peter Theil btw.
