There’s Peertube as an alternative. It lacks some content, but the platform is on par. It is developed by a French association called Framasoft. Thus said, you’re right, Youtube is still okay, even thus there are some fake videos and scam, but they are easy to avoid.
Ahem. That’s happening over here as well, but fortunately, not on the same scale (for now).
Excellent article. Thank you!
This can happen with people that refuse to learn!
I have no idea, but I’m also interested. Thus said, remember that’s only inside EU. I remember that Meta said they won’t apply this outside EU.
I agree 🙂 There’s also a lot of lobbying inside EU, but there’s more citizens resistance (for now…). As we say about capitalism: privatize profits, share losses.
That’s sad :/
I don’t think so. The reverse is even happening as there are way more restrictions inside Europe for Europeans companies. The result is that they are less competitive, but more respectful for EU citizens (but unfortunately, outside companies don’t always have to respect this, for now).
Why don’t Americans put pressure on legislation like Europeans did with the GDPR?
I use encryption on laptops, because they can be stolen in the train, bus, etc. On work desktop, I do so as well, because there are many people around. However, on everything that stay at home, I prefer not to use it to simplifiy things and get more performance.
I agree. I don’t use it for these reasons. But technologically speaking, it’s an open source alternative.
