The Universal Health Care ad is cute. I just tweeted it. I see NOTHING in that ad that would have gotten it pulled.

Calm the fuck down. Seriously. This shit on youtube happens ALL the time to high profile figures!

There really isn't much of an alternative to youtube...

wrong

there is Daily Motion; there is Pirate Bay; there is warez-bb; and dozens of other alternatives.

Hi everybody! This is a good explanation of CISPA:

I would agree if this was normal, but considering that my account consisted of nothing but video containing mashed up news clips, and original video content with no copyright issues, there's something else going on here.
This video:


was removed, and my whole account closed because of that video? On an attempt to replay the video from YouTube after it was posted, it was said something like, "This content was removed because of spam, scam, and ....." one more thing I think.
Anyway, not sure how they consider a video about health care and pointing out the candidates differences/not differences on the issue, "spam, scam, etc.", and they haven't replied to any forms so far, other than the auto-generated responses.

Vimeo, Video Sharing For You

Yes, those of you with know-how figure out how to counter this.

Multiple, alternative sites to host videos are out there, l just need to figure some things out.

But this could easily turn out to be one of the biggest signs yet that we are on the verge of winning, now things are getting serious.

Nevermind, figured it out.

Anywho, this was the video that YouTube terminated my account over....LOL, mind boggling.

Good job! (both on the video and figuring out the problem).

And folks get molested by the TSA all the time too. At some point it's time to stand up and be counted. It's also time to be prudent. At this juncture using YouTube as your only place to host your videos isn't prudent.

I really do wonder what the founding fathers would do in this situation...when the war started, a majority of the citizens didn't want anything to do with it, simply to be left alone. Eventually though, it spread...and more and more joined the fight.

 

[drummergirl]

That's ok; let them get the dirty tricks out of their systems while we still have plenty of time before Tampa... bwahahahahaha

 

[Constitutional Paulicy]

Actually there is.



Upload whatever content to multiple video streaming websites. Then if a video gets taken down on one site it can still be viewed on another. TubeMogul lets you upload content to multiple video sites at once. What's needed from a technical perspective is a "mirror" website that will check those sites, and if the video is taken down from the primary site, "serve" the video from one of the other sites. That would break the back of the YouTube monopoly.

Just registered an account. Thanks for the insight!!!!

A false flag war is not a good thing.

Has anyone tried to find out what's really going on ?

I ask because a youtube search for "Ron Paul" delivers 1.8 million hits

ETA: And I see nothing wrong with having stuff hosted at multiple locations ... The only thing better is your own server and a trusted ISP, or hosting yourself if you can afford it.

 

[CaptainAmerica]

Is that what happened to the Ron Paul 2008 site?

There are others, one was even liberty oriented but I sure can't remember its name....

moxnews.

 

[coffeewithchess]

moxnews.

Whoa....MoxNews got taken down also?

Wow, just Googled it...they are going hardcore on this, with no real reasons given. I know MoxNews did a lot of news clips and things, not sure how much was "Fair Use", but the fact they are going in and closing down entire accounts such as mine, on videos that contained no copyrighted materials...is really bizarre.
The worst part is you can't even get a human at Google/YouTube to respond to anything, and it's just auto-replies.

MOXNEWS has been taken down numerous times. They juggle multiple Youtube accounts. As soon as the primary account gets suspended, they redirect their followers to their secondary/trimary accounts etc.
