It's decided - the United Nations agrees to change internet video format of videos you watch online
[link to www.3news.co.nz]

The UN telecommunications agency says its members have agreed upon a new compression format that could dramatically cut the amount of internet bandwidth currently used by video files.

The International Telecommunication Union says the format, or codec, known as H.265 would require just half the amount of data needed by its predecessor, H.264

It's likely far more susceptible to government snooping and monitoring, too.

Ding, ding!

That is not how compression formats work. Any attempts to argue with this show that you lack an understanding of video and audio compression formats and have switched your tinfoil for aluminium foil.

I really don't know why the UN has anything at all to do with it but generally it's good news, H264 was a great codec, H265 will be even better :)

It's good news for HDTV and it's variants, it's good for the net and higher quality streaming and it's good for the guys who like boats, babes and parrots :)

Screw the UN those freaks desire control and only want to get their claws and noses further up our rectums and their universal video format fails if we shun personal data gatherers such as facebook.
