RE: Tannourine in Lebanon: Street Photography

Thanks for the watch sir :-) Indeed, YouTube have really hobbled themselves when it comes to competition. With so many more options available now they can no longer hold the monopoly. There is no way they can satisfy every advertiser, even if they regulate the content. It's just a matter of time befroe the next adpocalypse will start because at the minute the most popular YouTubers tend to be antagonistic pranksters.

In fact they have recently kicked one of them for a prank about throwing water in the faces of random members of the public from a bottle. People said it was irresponsible what with the increase in acid attacks in the city. So to show they are "all of a sudden" proactive, YouTube shut down his channel. I can't imagine the remaining creators will put up with being pushed around if they know they can find a platform elsewhere.

Sort:  

It's like any other habit. Sometimes it's hard to kick because people have 'invested' time and effort into the platform. Being under the control of any website is asking for trouble? People need to wake up to reality. Reminds me of the old saying.

First they came for the socialists and I didn't speak out I'm pretty sure you know the rest?

Whoops we seem to have drifted off topic lol my bad.

Well, at least we had a topical conversation in the process lol ;-)

True and very interesting too. It's a topic that will run and run lol
