  • Fair enough. I would argue that the word choice and phrasing of your first comment isn’t in line with the one you just made, but definitely fair enough.

    I would say that if improved privacy isn’t motivation enough in and of itself, then the people lacking that motivation wouldn’t care even if there were some added incentives until they got into the absurd range of basically buying customers. The folks that don’t care about privacy enough for an improvement at this scale just won’t care about any improvement to their privacy at all.



  • Horse shit.

    Reading vs TV was a tired debate in the eighties. YouTube is no different than tv. Hell, in some ways, because it isn’t all controlled by oligarchs entirely, I would argue that it’s easier to find good things on YouTube than it ever was on broadcast or cable tv.

    Also, ablist much? How about the blind and dyslexic? Are they fucked just because you don’t like that format?

    Yeah, fuck YouTube as a platform, and fuck Google/alphabet, but don’t pretend to be the arbiter of entertainment.












  • Well, back in the day, a doughnut cost a lot less than a donut.

    So, betting dollars against donuts would be a bad idea.

    Not that it was ever a betting term, it just condone contains a reference to betting.

    It’s like saying “hey, lets get dinner. You give me a twig for every dollar I put in.”

    You’re either exchanging something of unequal value, or making an “investment” where you get very little return on it.
