How long have we all known this was bound to happen? 10 years for me. Minimum. I stopped liking Google and started diversifying my internet habits at minimum ten years ago. I could see they were becoming the new oligarchy, and do no evil was just an act, a cover, for the nefarious plans they intended.

But I didn't stop using my Android, or completely drop using search until recently. Duckduckgo is now my go to. Any Linux phone that makes it to market is also on my list.

This is all of your faults, mine included, for not leaving en masse ten years ago. Make Google irrelevant. Boycott them and patronize any service other than them.

Nothing more than theatre to convince the gullible that Infowars is not the controlled opposition it is.

toobaditworks ago

Infowars is HUGE. There is NO need to convince anyone to like INFOWARS. People like them. YOU are a small minority. To get infowars banned to satisfy the small minority makes no sense.

And Infowars goes after SPLC and they are behind this attack.

It's pretty easy to destroy Google. Just throw literal wrenches into their generators. Or better yet barter food with the countless homeless people living around Google headquarters to day and night randomly throw rocks and metal objects into the radiators that cool the generators of Google's server farms.

More Clickbait bullshit from Infowars.

They don't have 3 strikes. they have 1 after a second strike was removed.

Youtube froze their channel. If you don't see other conservative and alt-media being censored then you aren't paying attention. I can list a bunch.

Rebel_Media_FTW ago

Nope, this is just a bunch of nonsense by Jones to get attention.

He had 2 strikes and one was removed.

People contacted "Trusted flaggers" and they removed one.

Same happened with a bunch of other channels like "Squatting slav TV" He got his channel nuked and he was given a Twitter and email account to contact and it was restored within hours.

Jones is just a clown who suckers fools out of their money.... he's literally a snake oil salesman.

toobaditworks ago

"Trusted flaggers" is the SPLC and ADL which JONES and crew constantly demonize as the filth they are.

he's literally a snake oil salesman.

THAT'S what David Hogg says. You're so on their team! You can join Hillary and FBI and SPLC and all the JEWS you hate! Fucking idiot.

sanchezgta ago

The way he wades through the general consensus of "Oh we are just censoring the conspiracy theory around bullied kids" which is most likely true statement from youtube (as Alex Jones is known for mocking/spinning or otherwise manipulating real stories of bullied kids that turn into shooters for his own means) I mean I wouldn't be surprised whether he is a NRA member and owned stock, all the way profiteering from these tragedies. I think the tinfoil he wears has boiled his brain.

toobaditworks ago

No they had a video up that was titled: The truth about crisis actors (or something like that) and in the video they say 'they are NOT crisis actors'. Much like how people don't read or watch videos and only read the titles to upvoat and downvoat. Someone at YouTube whoever got the report that this was a 'bad video' did not watch the video. They only reacted to the video's title.

sanchezgta ago

not you got that opposites, Alex Jones "proved" they were crisis actors/actresses and had to recant his statements because of how much flak he got.

kammmmak ago

The truth is a menace. Good vs (((Evil))).

To be fair, wasn't it because some of these nuts were harassing those kids for being crisis actors? Please, don't stoop to that level. That's what the libs do when they lose elections.

vimeo gives you a good amount of free storage for a free account.

This is a listing of open-source implementations of media formats—usually called codecs. Many of the codecs listed implement media formats that are restricted by patents and are hence not open formats. For example, x264 is a widely used open source implementation of the heavily patent encumbered MPEG-4 AVC media format.

  • x264 – H.264/MPEG-4 AVC implementation. x264 is not a codec (encoder/decoder); it is just an encoder (it cannot decode video).
  • OpenH264 – H.264 baseline profile encoding and decoding
  • x265 – An encoder based on the High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC/H.265) standard.
  • Xvid – MPEG-4 Part 2 codec, compatible with DivX
  • libvpx – VP8 and VP9 implementation; formerly a proprietary codec developed by On2 Technologies, released by Google under a BSD-like license in May 2010.
  • FFmpeg codecs – Codecs in the libavcodec library from the FFmpeg project (FFV1, Snow, MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4 part 2, MSMPEG-4, WMV2, SVQ1, MJPEG, HuffYUV and others). Decoders in the libavcodec (H.264, SVQ3, WMV3, VP3, Theora, Indeo, Dirac, Lagarith and others).
  • Lagarith – Video codec designed for strong lossless compression in RGB(A) colorspace (similar to ZIP/RAR/etc.)
  • libtheora – A reference implementation of the Theora format, based on VP3, part of the Ogg Project
  • Dirac as dirac-research, a wavelet based codec created by the BBC Research, and Schrödinger, an implementation developed by David Schleef.[1]
  • Huffyuv – Lossless codec from BenRG
  • Daala (working name) – Video codec under development by the Xiph.Org Foundation. Daala is intended to be a high-efficiency codec for use cases similar to those of High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC or H.265) and VP9.
  • Thor – royalty free video codec under development by Cisco Systems.

Vimeo is aimed at artists and movie makers.

They don't allow over the top political or religious content.

We are in the very eye of the storm. This is an all out war. I'm sorry, but I do not know that 'we' will win this. (((They))) own every apparatus of control aside from the 2A.

I take Jones with a pinch of salt but his conspiracy site/ doomsday preacher network does have its uses ... its time for Jones to act and get behind something, you have bitchute, dailymotion, vimeo, liveleak and so many other alt vid sites and social plaforms out there....No Action can be equally as bad, i said fuck youtube, ocasionally i must use them because everything is on youtube but i largely abandoned them...time to fish or cut bait.... if they dont get public support and people dont move to them these new rival sites they can die off...

Google got rid of "Don't be evil" in the same way Mossad of Israel got rid of their first motto "By way of deception thou shalt do war."

They dropped it for a reason.

They got the play logo directly from the seal of satan. Evil in plain sight yet you could show a hundred people and maybe 2 would think it's not a coincidence.

Infowars was trying to spread lies and misinformation, just like Voat does. It's silly because there are plenty of things to rant about without lying, seriously, why make up demonstratively false bullshit when there is plenty of real lies to expose? The only reason I can come up with is he's being paid to put on this stupid act. I wish Voat was more interested in truth than trying to push a false narrative all the time to push some stupid far-right agenda.

Good luck with that. Youtube was bleeding hundreds of millions of dollars every year for close to a decade before Google bought them out and it's still bleeding cash.

Any serious competitor will need DEEP pockets to take on Youtube.

speedisavirus ago

Oh I know. I wonder how much of that is that they don't allow "adult" content though. I've worked about 5 years in digital advertising and have a good handle on it but it's not hard to imagine how much the infrastructure costs of HD streaming costs vs ad turnover. It's a real balancing act between balancing advertiser cost per impression vs what you give to the content creators. And video gets even trickier based on what metrics you deem an ad to be "viewed". 25%? Does it have to be on screen? What about half of it on screen? Is just the audio enough? Are you going to use viewability pixels and such to make sure you aren't just flat out blocked? One thing I learned in those years, is anything you think you are doing to block it they have an answer. It's just a question of how ethical the ad network is and whether they care about being moderately ethical.

Wahaha ago

The trouble is getting both the content and the audience.

verifex ago

And it would just turn into some far-right circle jerk within 1 second, and nobody wants to do lots of work for that when we already have voat for that. Maybe if it provided something useful...

speedisavirus ago

It's what happened to Gab. Everyone labeled it FAR right because they didn't censor and then flooded the far right because of that label and anyone remotely moderate shunned it.

It's clear that Youtube was determined to ban Infowars and were going to make up whatever 'reasons' they needed to.

Google's near monopoly power over many aspects internet is something that must be addressed.

They really need to make a free Roku app if they get fully banned. I'll check it out once in a while but I'm not paying when they have their own ads every 10 minutes.

OhRutherfordBehave ago

The channel is still up, so what you are reporting is false. Downvote.

Everything in the story is false.

Inforwars got 2 strikes but 1 was removed after Trusted flaggers were contacted and they had it removed.

verifex ago

Since when did truth matter to voat? I thought this place was just another shill town.

12079606? ago

The truth always matters

Koalemos_Grottesco ago

The headline is misleading. However, the article from infowars, if true, is indeed troubling:

"YouTube has just delivered its third strike against Infowars, freezing our ability to upload new content."

discoball ago

This is actually worse for Infowars, IMO. By doing this, YouTube will avoid a lot of backlash since they didn't technically remove the channel. They can feign innocent. But Infowars is essentially crippled now, unable to upload new content. It's really sneaky and unethical.

OhRutherfordBehave ago

I see, that makes more sense. What was the third strike for? I know the second was for the Parkland Shooting.

Rebel_Media_FTW ago

There was no third strike.

Infowars had 2 strikes but 1 was removed. If another strike came it it still puts them at 2.

Alex Jones is just milking this for attention and lying about the details.

Others including Tim Pool who doesn't take sides is reporting what's actually happening.

Jones is literally a snake oil salesman,

FuckTheVirileAether ago

What was the third strike for?

It doesn't matter. The point was always to censer right wing voices while pretending like they had a fair shot to "follow the rules". They would make up any bullshit to silence Infowars. There's nothing Infowars could do to comply to avoid punishment because punishment was always the intention.

The only way I ever see this happening is if it's broken up "Ma Bell style," which considering how the internet works seems unlikely. But it's true that Google has a monopoly on both search and online video, no doubt about it, and it's using that position to fuck us over.

If content creators all went to D tube, we would be fine

analfaveto ago

The problem is there is a decade's worth of valuable content on YouTube, and most people aren't interested in politics. Do you think someone who has a carpentry channel with half a million subscribers and has uploaded 500 videos over a period of ten years is going to move to D Tube because Alex Jones got banned? Most people don't even know who Alex Jones is. The only solution I see would be if a competitor started paying the creators more than YouTube does, but it would take an awful lot of capital to compete against Google.

Broc_Lia ago

D tube? That one's new to me, I'll give it a look.

Honestly I'll go wherever the big names go, and they have to go somewhere with all the no-platforming.

pleasepleaseplease ago

I've messed around with Dtube a bit. It is an interesting idea, creators and commenters get paid Steem for how many upvotes they get. I've run into a lot of obstacles while trying to upload, though. It seems finnicky. But I think if it continues to improve, it has a chance.

Broc_Lia ago

Oh is that what steem is? I saw it trending on coinmarketcap but I never actually checked out the project. A crypto based youtube would be awesome.

pleasepleaseplease ago

Yes it is. There are things I don't understand about exactly how Steem works with Dtube. For example, being able to send Steem from your Dtube channel to another wallet, I haven't figured that out yet.

Hayashimo ago

YouTube is so irritating. It's one of the few Google-related products I haven't been able to drop -- the other being Android.

I left for VidMe for a while, but had to go back when they shut down. The other competitors, like Bitchute, just aren't where they need to be to act as a replacement. Hopefully in the near future that will change.

It will probably remain dominant so long as it remains the most viable site for video makers to make a living off of. Perhaps the ONLY one of note right now, now that I think of it.

DramaticExchange ago

If another site becomes really popular, I think they would still have to deal with all the litigation YouTube had to deal with from companies like Viacom. A lot of the copyright claim bullshit we've seen over the years is due to YouTube trying to get them off their backs.

SecularPenguinist ago

Maybe if they would only honor legitimate copyright claims. YouTube seems to be ignorant of the fact that there's this thing called fair use. Parody, critique, and review are all covered. Yet butthurt media companies don't like being mocked and criticized so they file false violations and YouTube honors them without question.
