It appears that @BitChute has deleted its account on Voat. It also appears that all videos ever archived on its VoatArchive channel were nuked. (whatever)

Bitchute's VoatArchive channel

Channel videos appeared to be nuked.

Edit: The archive bot made a total of 82620 comments. Each comment had one archive link, sometimes more. We could estimate the number to be at 80 thousand videos minimum. It is kind of sad to see all those videos go.

Update: I have randomly checked several videos in each month and found all videos were deleted.

Just thinking about something here. What if one were to make a hidden website that was the repository of videos and had one (or more) client-facing site(s) as the proxy(ies)? That way, went one gets DDoSed or whatever other problem, it is just the proxy getting taken down, not the hidden repository of videos. The only entity that could figure out the hidden site would be the hosting site of the proxies. Thus, new proxies could be made in literally an hour.

The data on the proxies would be extremely "thin" and easily replicated. Drunk, but am I missing something?
