Facebook, Microsoft, Twitter, Youtube are going to start hashing files deemed to be "terrorist content", those files will then be shared with the other services allowing automatic removal of content the service providers deem "bad". Major sites of the internet have now announced that they will be actively and automatically disappearing content .
Flag something as "terrorist recruiting" content and it disappears forever from those sites. I'm sure this is not going to be abused at all and will not open the door for something even worse
Youtube is ALREADY dying, as in number of people browsing the site and time browsing. I feel bad for some people that make a living off of youtube.

After YT had that terrorist home bomb cooking and execution video up for almost a whole day, reaching God knows how many views.
I'd say they wouldn't be the most reliable of this quadfecta of bullshit.
Sebastian Kelly
That's not possible.
Connor Murphy
Cool. Noob here, are fuzzy hashes still one way functions? (assuming they exists yaddah yaddah)
Alexander Myers
This is wrong. Maybe these companies should be putting some money into mental health services or better yet, get to the root of the fucking problem. They could stop spying on citizens and work on rebuilding public trust. This makes my blood boil. Freedom of speech is all or nothing. Nobody takes this stuff seriously until their friends and family start to disappear in black vans. History is repeating itself. People here will reply that I'm paranoid. Just wait and see, you stupid fucks.

I agree with you, but is there anything we could do to stop or resist it at this point?

Those that make peaceful change impossible make violent change inevitable.
Well, the US government is currently discussing laws where people involved in protests where looting occurs can be jailed for 'economic terrorism'. So this might extend to all sorts of grievances if it is serious enough that it might make people protest.

Those are all private companies. Your freedom of speech is not in jeopardy if you can't upload ISIS videos to YouTube anymore, Ahmed.
Camden Murphy
He's probably talking about Microsoft's PhotoDNA.

>I feel bad for some people that make a living off of youtube. Why? I feel sorry for the animators that got fucked over a while back, but the remaining youtubers are just faggots doing vlogs and gaming.
Dominic Thomas
well all of this still means it at least applies to more or less concrete data
think of images, the message will be the same, and if that's deemed terrorist and removed in one fellow swoop, why not.
I mean, why would we here even care
Thomas Davis
>say you'll go after terrorist content >will probably just ban anyone with a Pepe pic and accuse them of being in the Klan

private companies being paid by the government to skirt the constitution
