Anonymous Coward User ID: 15335001 Germany 11/06/2013 10:20 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Sure, 99% of the comments on YouTube were pure crap, but this really does suck. It seems as though I can reply to comments but I can't comment without replying. Any other popular video hosting sites where you can easily comment? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 15335001 I don't know much about alternatives beyond Vimeo and such. But as somebody said in a comment in an article about all this, it has nothing to do with stopping the crap comments. It's all about forcing everybody to use G+. Yeah I didn't mean they updated the comment section because of crap comments; I ment that even though 99% of the comments were crap, I'll still miss freely commenting and reading some of that crap left by pure idiots (I mean, the brain farts of some people just made my day) :( |

But somewhere I read that Google claims this is to keep the comments free of trolls, and of course nobody believes that. I agree it's better to put up with the trolls than have Big Brother deciding what we're allowed to see. Have I now become your enemy by telling you the truth? (Gal. 4:16) |

You can add all sort of countermeasures to keep trolls away, but you won't be successful. I thin Google just wants us to use g+ because it was dead on arrival and no-one would use it otherwise. |

(OP) User ID: 20545539 United States 11/07/2013 10:03 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | More and more threads about this... In my opinion, the best strategy for dealing with the global police state is to hide in plain sight. Use the services but use them wisely. E.G., I use my gmail only in connection with my phone; no other email goes through there. I'm on FB but only give partially true info. To stay out completely makes you stand out, and there is no escaping the spying, even if you go completely off-grid. Have I now become your enemy by telling you the truth? (Gal. 4:16) |
