that's why I'm staying on youtube as long as youtube lets me

2018-08-09 04:33:18 UTC  

I don't specifically want to go to bitchute. I think it's going to be a right wing echo chamber

2018-08-09 04:33:34 UTC  

right now I'm just using it as a backup

2018-08-09 04:41:13 UTC  

That's the thing that is bothering me a lot about how even conservatives like Dave Cullen are calling for government intervention against Youtube, Facebook, Twitter and the like.

2018-08-09 04:41:47 UTC  

hmmm

2018-08-09 04:41:59 UTC  

yeah I don't know if that is a good idea

2018-08-09 04:42:14 UTC  

I don't like monopolistic tech companies getting really heavy handed on deciding what is and isn't allowed on their platforms, but I can't think of much worse than government intervention.

2018-08-09 04:42:44 UTC  

and supposedly people who support this internet bill of rights supports net neutrality

2018-08-09 04:43:22 UTC  

the funny thing is my friend doesn't believe that YouTube isn't a monopoly

2018-08-09 04:43:39 UTC  

Net Neutrality itself just seems like nothing so much as people giving the government credit it doesn't deserve.

2018-08-09 04:44:17 UTC  

"But there's Bitchute, and Minds, and whatever else! Youtube can't be a monopoly!"

2018-08-09 04:44:27 UTC  

lol

2018-08-09 04:44:39 UTC  

that is pretty much what he is saying

2018-08-09 04:44:46 UTC  

Yeah, but in the 90s, there was always Apple, but people bitched about what a monopoly Windows was.

2018-08-09 04:45:31 UTC  

I don't really like using that as an example though, considering that case went nowhere because Microsoft just started giving buckets of money to congress.

2018-08-09 04:45:53 UTC  

hmmm

2018-08-09 04:47:22 UTC  

Or at least, my understanding is that the biggest reason that Microsoft was brought to court for monopoly stuff was that they weren't lobbying congress. After that case, they started lobbying a whole lot more, and nothing has happened since.

2018-08-09 04:47:50 UTC  

I'm insanely bothered by the internet bill of rights

2018-08-09 04:48:10 UTC  

that's been one of the most bothersome concepts that's ever come across policy in my eyes

2018-08-09 04:49:15 UTC  

Ideally we don't even have to have it

2018-08-09 04:55:34 UTC  

it's nothing more than another government intervention

2018-08-09 05:05:54 UTC  

I don't know what that even means. I've never heard anyone reference it except by name.

2018-08-09 05:25:39 UTC  

just like gun rights, we shouldn't need a piece of paper to tell us that we have the right to be armed

2018-08-09 05:34:32 UTC  

talk next time then

2018-08-09 05:34:35 UTC  

should go to bed

2018-08-09 14:58:36 UTC  

wow I just came across some awesome widipedia. Is anyone familiar with the Russian Pale of Settelment?

2018-08-09 15:03:30 UTC  

If any of you are familiar with it, then you might have noticed the conspicuous fact that all of the territory that was The Pale are now states belonging to NATO, except Ukrain
