RE: This is why decentralized platforms like Steemit can succeed | Youtube's blatant censorship of this artist's song shows us why platforms like Steemit and DTube are essential
I know. That's why I'm here :)
But we're a long way before Google or Facebook goes down. And they're overlords over so much tech industry, that I doubt that even if nobody uses YT anymore, they still would be gigantic. We'll see where this goes. Till then, I'll keep up my crusade against their shitty practices!
Are we? A long way? I remember it took about a year for everybody to jump ship from MySpace to Facebook. MySpace were gigantic. But where is it today? The internet is a graveyard of tech companies.
Just my humble opinion for all it is worth, your time and energy would be better spent promoting platforms such as Steemit and DTube.
But that is what we are discussing here, freedom to choose. ;-)
I am promoting blockchain tech in general. But I need to speak out against authoritarian companies as well, for the normies :)
And MySpace was just social media, while Google has it's paws into that, video, ads, AI, smartphones, domain registration etc. Google is far from easily beaten.
To use another analogy, there was time that it was thought that the Roman Empire was unbeatable.
Time will tell.
Oh, I'm not saying it's undoable, just ... a long way from defeated. Hopefully, it will some day. But I'm fairly certain it won't be so for at least 3 more years.
