It has something to do with it. The internet enables control over what you talk about and share even with those close to you. We seem to like controlling others where we can. It doesnt seem al that bad but our benevolent corporate overlord dont represent the true madness of our kind. They havent categorized an untermensh nor refer to people as animals, we get to complaint about and mock our leaders. We have an elaborate system of law. One day people will no doubt wake up and it is all gone or it will gradually errode away.
Laws that require changing our entire civilisation and culture are not your friend. You dont want to search everones house to check if they own a radio or tv. If that happens depends on who is asking. It isnt a static group. It might begin with heroic crime fighters but we can expand or replace the effort with new business logic. First we need to prevent you from reading a harry potter registered in someone elses name, then we need to be able to take your music purchases away from you until eventually we need to lock you up for subscribing to the wrong youtube channel 30 years ago.
It isnt actually as absurd as not having video on websites in an afordable way.
All those people working at youtube and all of those giant servers. It takes a truly monumental effort to use the wrong technology.
I have to watch ads to pay for it? Advertisers have to influence content to pay for it? Our best men to keep the eyeballs on ads to pay for it?
I have over a thousand yt subs to deleted channels for a laundry list of resons. There use to be threaded discussions and video replies. It all had to go to pay for it?
All the horrors of central planning without the nice things the communists prommised us?
All that to make sure some people get paid for things other people did 70 years ago?
If that is what it costs they should not be paid. I hope little jimmy downloads all of their movies, every tv show, all the video games, all of their music, all of their books and all of their published papers.
They wanted little jimmy to pay for singing happy birthday on video. Imagine the money they lost that day. All of those birthdays!
We could have had birthday inspection squad teams. Fight the crime at the source.
I think i got to 2500ish of which about 1000 vanished.
The trick is to look for things not discovered by the masses. The reason (i wont call it a mistake) is almost always not publishing frequently enough. (Not that i dont watch popular things or everything in between.) Infrequent publishers dont get very noisy.
