    Meh. I’ve seen this guys channel. He got removed for a ban evasion on his second channel which was encouraging people to 3D print firearms. Second channel got banned for this, and so he started clearing out the first channel in an effort to keep the first channel from getting banned; he knew it was coming.

    Now he’s posting on some YouTube clone that Newsmaxx is prominently featured on. Louis Rossmann wasn’t given the full story here, as I’m sure he would have a different tune if he knew all that was going on.

    This is exactly why we as a community need to work hard to build federated platforms, that are censorship resistant. YouTube as the public square is extremely censored, and arbitrary, today it’s not so bad, but tomorrow who knows

      Mass video hosting is just so incredibly expensive, especially something in the scale of the types of CDNs services like YouTube use

    People will still use their service, so…. This is entirely irrelevant.
