#YouTube makes money from videos promoting extremism. Its algorithm radicalises viewers, because it wants people to be angrily clicking on more videos.
YouTube is tearing society apart by encouraging us to hate each other:
The most promising ethical alternative to YouTube is #PeerTube, which is decentralised and in beta testing.
You can support development of PeerTube to a release version at its crowdfunding page:

@switchingsocial @ajeremias @chocobozzz Yet if the concepts and ethics of #Peertube are undeniably great, isn't it an important (almost more important..?) privacy problem that *everyone* can see the IPs of *everybody else* watching a specific video?
p2p is great but in that case it is lots of (personal) data being publicly distributed as well..
Is that even fixable?
@FuckOffGoogle you could use a VPN. I2P is an anonymous network that supports torrents.
@FuckOffGoogle @switchingsocial @ajeremias trivially if we had a capability-based network fabric instead of a location-based one
