so the government is planning MANDATORY CHANGES to how content is discovered on YouTube in the UK.
- they want YouTube to prioritise mainstream broadcasters like BBC, ITV and Channel 4 over user created content with a 'prominence regime'
this is absolutely insane and is going to severely affect everyone british youtuber should this go through. YouTube have started a campaign to fight this, but we need your help to ensure this doesn't go through like this, since this could RUIN the site
This is a dangerous anti-privacy bill (identity verification) that the House of Representatives might try to pass by voice vote this afternoon before many of us are even in town. Senators Mike Lee, Rand Paul, and Ron Wyden voted against a similar bill in the Senate two years ago.
It passed, but AGAIN. Do not panic! We still have the Senate and the house, stay calm and call your reps!! I’m scared but I’m not letting that consume me ❤️
