@retoor @CodingTripledad @retoor yeah that’s the logical thing to do, but the enforcement of bs has become so neurotic ocd nuanced. Just check the tos

@CodingTripledad you didn’t read my whole post, that is the bait and switch I’m talking about, while they “grew” the company, they were not tyrannical, now that they have the monopoly they are becoming tyrannical

@sugarcube oh, so that happened to my feet collection playlist that I used for sexual gratification

@CodingTripledad I can accept what you are saying but a company making judgements on one’s internal character and intentions based on a fucking playlist ? That’s insanity. And at this point, big tech is not simply a “product” it is a major engine of influence and mind control. It is it’s own gov entity at this point. You cannot call Facebook twitter and others merely “products” anymore given their height of influence and power and the fact that no one even has an identity anymore unless they have online presence.

@retoor exactly, but they wont stop u bookmarking it :)
YouTube just deleted my favorites playlist for supposed hate speech. My playlist had like 4k vids in it (none of them uploaded by me) and most of them were just stupid music videos or whatever, nothing even comes to mind that would qualify as hate speech, so because of this alleged needle in a 4k video haystack my playlist got deleted, YouTube did not even show any evidence of the supposed hate speech content within, my appeal was denied instantly. This is why I hate big tech- it is tyrannical and bullshit. It serves as an extra government nanny rather than appealing to its user base. This is because once a social platform grows so large that it has the monopoly on users, it no longer has to appeal to its users, it can then just focus on politics or other agendas. They can do this with confidence that they will not lose their users because they know that the modern internet narcissist will flock to any app that gives them the biggest audience, and since they have the monopoly on users they can rest assured the common narcissist will flock to their app (no matter how shitty or tyrannical) because they’ll get the most exposure there. This is the pattern every big social media platform falls into. At one point YouTube was cool….
