Ad revenue = censorship. YouTube is a santitized online mall. Freedom of speech is repressed in favor of an estrogen filled consumption based version of reality that offends no one, promotes consumption behavior and bows to advertisers. At some point the matrix will crash in favor of reality and by then platforms closer to freedom of expression will supplant repressive platforms. The problem is that D.Tube by name and by business model will follow YouTube's path or die as advertisers will demand the same kind of censorship found on YouTube. That is why cryptocurrency is so crucial. The system is scared of cryptocurrency because it breaks the power structure and allows people to trade in something other than legal tender. The arrogance that crypto currency, a made up thing, not legal tender, an idea really, made up of pure code, and attributed value by some people is subject to taxation is pure arrogance on the part of government. Arrogant tyranny on your tax farm or mine is simply not acceptable and illogical, unsustainable and will be replaced accordingly. Kill the parasite by not feeding it. Time will tell if D.Tube matters at all.
