YouTube refusing to show ads for the #Musk documentary is a very bad sign. Everybody thinks that when the TV networks and streamers bend the knee, FCC dissidents like Kimmel or Colbert can just put it up on YouTube. That's not going to last. Also YouTube is obviously going to be the last of the big video networks standing when the dust settles. Competition among the billionaires is a joke. Y'all better start fighting to make #owncast and #peertube matter like yesterday.

    @wjmaggos@liberal.city It appears that YouTube is carrying the trailer, they just are refusing to accept paid ads for it. Which means that few people will find it, but we can share it. It's trending now.

    @wjmaggos@liberal.city it will be fine once the Ellisons have control of HBO, which produced the documentary

    @wjmaggos@liberal.city I do think that youtube. Like Alphabet is not going to make it out as a company. This whole thing is going to collapse in worst way possible.

  • @wjmaggos@liberal.city It's probably a good idea to start looking for news media that have their own independent or at least diverse means of distribution (ex. Majority Report has their own app).

NO You Tube is part of google and thus owned by a supporter of us Fascist policy. Agree Peer Tube need more support.

    @wjmaggos@liberal.city Lol. That's much better that the ads. I would block or ignore the ad, but now I'm interested. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streisand_effect
