YouTube crackdown

Yesterday, YouTube aggressively deleted and blocked a large number of channels focused on technology and blockchain.

50 of my videos just got removed for being harmful or dangerous content. Most of these weren't even crypto videos. Tutorials, explainers, educational videos, Australian housing market updates, economics & negative interest rates. What a way to spend #Xmas. Absolutely gutted 😢 pic.twitter.com/SrGHaLW5na

Nice Christmas present from Youtube, 37 videos pulled and a strike. Ouch. #bitcoin #crypto #censorship

While others were already here.

In case YouTube decides to delete my channel (or most of my videos), please follow me on LBRY.

They've already hit many of the crypto channels you know and love, so the attack may already be here against cryptocurrency: https://t.co/LCgvIMVs3B

The beauty of LBRY is that this kind of thing could never happen here. Even if evil-censorship-loving brain slugs wormed their slimy mind-control tentacles into our brains (we think this may have happened at YouTube), your keys would still be safe in your hands.

Help make this impossible by supporting these creators

Weve rounded up this list of blockchain-related creators publishing to LBRY.

Please follow them and show them LBRY love. The more creators adopt and see the value of LBRY, the faster we achieve true digital freedom.
