ala, what they aren't doing with telcoms

2018-12-14 23:14:48 UTC  

Any market with a significant barrier to entry tends to monopoly.

I got into talking about fitness and the importance of a healthy lifestyle...

2018-12-14 23:14:52 UTC  

Big pharma has nothing on big gay

2018-12-14 23:14:54 UTC  

```@Stefan Payne Which is why governments role should be to ensure competition```
EXACTLY!
And ensure a fair and open market.

The Geforce Partner Programm violates this.

2018-12-14 23:15:14 UTC  

But what about youtube?

Youtubes market is raelly poor for profit, it has no "marketable value"

2018-12-14 23:15:27 UTC  

Youtube is a monopoly simply cuz theres no interest in becoming a competitor

2018-12-14 23:15:32 UTC  

He said this:

"I don't need to work out because I'm an intellectual, so those things don't interest me"

Or something along those lines

2018-12-14 23:15:33 UTC  

Hence why utilities are called 'natural monopolies', because they have massive barriers to entry: you have to built a distribution system (i.e., powerlines, generators, pipes, resevoirs, etc)

2018-12-14 23:15:33 UTC  

so how do you split them appart?

2018-12-14 23:15:51 UTC  

The ass cheeks of big gay?

2018-12-14 23:16:04 UTC  

Youtube is not as secure a monopoly as a utility, but it does have monopoly power due to network effects.

2018-12-14 23:16:11 UTC  

Youtube is a net-loss,

So no other company wants to compete,

How do you break up a monopoly in a market thats failing

2018-12-14 23:16:17 UTC  

Then he started making the point that it is impossible to be attractive AND smart

2018-12-14 23:16:21 UTC  

Like wtf

2018-12-14 23:16:23 UTC  

People use Youtube because everyone else uses youtube.

2018-12-14 23:16:24 UTC  

There are competitors anyway though

2018-12-14 23:16:28 UTC  

that too

2018-12-14 23:16:40 UTC  

most competitors can't compete cuz the market just isn't there

2018-12-14 23:16:42 UTC  

We had a great solution for the "Utility Problem" in Germany, before Privatization: The local gouvernments are the ones responsible for them, wich means the People.

2018-12-14 23:16:48 UTC  

Smart people tend to be attractive e

2018-12-14 23:16:49 UTC  

The primary issue competition is facing right now is MasterCard leaning on them

2018-12-14 23:16:59 UTC  

@Crimsom thats my goal.

2018-12-14 23:16:59 UTC  

Bitchute is just as good as Youtube in terms of functionality (from the user perspective anyway), but nobody uses it because nobody else uses it.

2018-12-14 23:17:05 UTC  

^

2018-12-14 23:17:29 UTC  

That was always going to be a slow shift though

2018-12-14 23:17:30 UTC  

```Bitchute is just as good as Youtube in terms of functionality (from the user perspective anyway), but nobody uses it because nobody else uses it.```
Quality of the Videos aren't there as well.
Seems like 1,5MBit at most

2018-12-14 23:17:37 UTC  

@Swedishmafia101 Ah yes, the "I'm "smart" so I shouldnt work out crowd." Literally a dingus. I work out quite often and still have stellar preformance in college. A small amount of excercise a day, and a bit of sophistication in the way you dress and you can easily be attractive.

2018-12-14 23:17:41 UTC  

So with a big enough external disruption that can flip quickly, but the current monopoly has the market power to stifle disruption.

2018-12-14 23:17:47 UTC  

Gradual exodus as YouTube drives away its userbase with poor practices

2018-12-14 23:17:57 UTC  

Yeah

2018-12-14 23:18:06 UTC  

Just let YouTube keep bleeding itself dry

2018-12-14 23:18:09 UTC  

Only Youtube can bring down Youtube.

2018-12-14 23:18:17 UTC  

@>_ CRAWLING IN MY SKIN!

2018-12-14 23:18:19 UTC  

I believe that anyone can be attractive if they just try

2018-12-14 23:18:23 UTC  

if Youtoube wouldn't fight for its market, i'd wager it would split a bit,

Bitchute like 20-30% market
Youtube 70-80%

Simply due to people being too lazy to leave

2018-12-14 23:18:25 UTC  

and Youtube has a female (Affirmative Action???) CEO, wich means they will be going down like Yahoo!

2018-12-14 23:18:30 UTC  

Youtube, for example, could cut revenue for creators that mirrored their content elsewhere.

2018-12-14 23:18:37 UTC  

kind of like how Android and IOS are

2018-12-14 23:18:44 UTC  

Im not sure youtube can even bring youtube down. the consumer is pretty trained.

2018-12-14 23:18:46 UTC  

@Swedishmafia101 Applies to 90% of things in life. Just try and put the work in.
