Youtube Wants Your Credit Card Information to View 18+ Videos
No, I'm not making this up. Ewe Tube is in the process of censoring their site even more, demanding credit card information as "proof of age" to view "naughty" (read: political sensitive) videos.

I'll let Styxhexenhammer take it from here...



Good luck, People!

Good, the more they push the more people will flee to other places like Bitchute.

I go to search for things and it's nearly all establishment channels like The History Channel (if I'm searching for anything on aliens, ancient history, etc...)

You have to know exactly the video you are looking for if you hope for it to show if it's a controversial topic.

I actually like this development. They are making it so much more attractive to abandon their site and go full-hog to their competitors.

Thanks for the incentive! It's practically a gilded invitation to leave Youtube forever!

Then they follow suit with woke corporations and their now superior ratings/lower revenues.

I mean, do people wake up every day needing their crack tube fix? Shit could disappear and the world would be a better place.

Um... there is, though, right?

Odyssey? Bitcute? Dailymotion? Locals? Now Frankspeech?

I guess that depends on your definition of "viable", but I respectfully submit there are viable alternatives. Just my opinion, of course
