France's Front National (who support the EU's mandatory copyright filters) furious when Youtube's copyright filters kill their channel

On June 20, an EU committee will vote on mandatory copyright filters -- the idea that everything that gets posted to an EU service should be checked for copyright violations by a machine learning system that will decide what gets published and what gets censored.

These filters don't even exist yet; the closest we come is YouTube's Content ID, which Google created voluntarily, and which is notorious for acts of arbitrary, incorrect censorship. Google spent $60,000,000 building Content ID, so that's the table stakes for any new online service.

 

That's what makes the far right European parties' support of this proposal so weird. The big online platforms have increasingly been deputized to police their users' speech, and right-wing forums were the first casualties of this drive, prompting the right to start its own versions of Twitter, Reddit, etc. They were able to do this, in part, because they didn't have to pony up $60,000,000 for a copyright filter (if you're not politically aligned with the far right, you should still be worried about this: when the FBI classes #BlackLivesMatter as Black Identity Extremists and the US government uses anti-terrorism tactics against the Dakota Access Pipeline protesters, the ability of people with unpopular ideas to start their own services if they are made unwelcome on the big platforms has never been more urgent).

 

In a rare and extremely timely incidence of coincidental providence, one of the largest partners in the far-right block in the EU, France's Front National, just had its YouTube channel "TVLibertés" deleted because Content ID claimed it contained copyright infringement, a claim disputed by FN leader Marine Le Pen, who called it “arbitrary, political, and unilateral."

 

The vote is in THREE DAYS, and if the FN MEPs reverse their positions (they are Marie-Christine Boutonnet @MCBoutonnetFN and Gilles Lebreton @Gilles_Lebreton) then the filters will almost certainly die. If they vote for the radical expansion of the system that just killed their own party's YouTube channel, it will probably pass, to their detriment and the detriment of hundreds of millions of EU internet users.

 

Quote

 

The broadcast named TVLibertés is gone, described by YouTube as “YouTube has blocked the broadcast of the newscast of Thursday, June 14 for copyright infringement.”

Marine Le Pen was quoted as saying, “This measure is completely false; we can easily assert a right of quotation [to illustrate why the material was well within the law to broadcast]”.

She’s right. Automated upload filters do not take into account when you have a legal right to broadcast copyrighted material for one of the myriad of valid reasons. They will just assume that this such reasons never exist; if nothing else, to make sure that the hosting platform steers clear of any liability. Political messages will be disappeared on mere allegations by a political opponent, just as might have happened here.

Dangerous for whom? Rothschild, perhaps?

 

-But why has the FN gained such popularity?

Because the French "democratic" parties,

which had governed France for decades,

proved to be eager employees of Rothschild. :yes:

Yes they are dangerous, but since last presidential election they are no muc heard and failed hard to provide any constructive opposition (or more like no opposition at all).

O.K. the FN is dangerous

while the other French political parties (the "democratic" ones...:rolleyes:)

have been ideal for destroying the French Social Security Network.

 

-Listen to what the Highly-Corrupted Media is feeding you.

-Keep voting Traitors who serve nobody but the Bankers.

Fortunately, some do care...

Especially, when we see our European Nations turning into a multi-"cultural"  :shit:.

 

Nationalism/Protectionism will be stronger and stronger

against the proponents of Globalization/N.W.O.

A lot artists and creators are moving to Patreon to get paid  because YouTube has been screwing them out of money.

Patreon allows

 

like you to get paid by running a membership business for your fans.

 

A Meaningful Revenue Stream
Fans pay you a subscription amount of their choice in exchange for exclusive experiences & behind-the-scenes content.
Regain Creative Freedom

Predictable income from your patrons means you can create on your terms. No strings attached.
Over $350 million Sent to Creators

An average patron pays more on a monthly basis than consumers pay for Netflix, Spotify, or Amazon Prime.

 People have done made over $350 million in cash switching to it. It's a paid service  fans pay Artist and Creators upfront for there content ..YouTube pays with ads and keep lowering peoples money because different products that Google makes ads for  keep dropping YouTube like files. That why Google also made a paid service on YouTube but this only helps out famous Artist and Creators but Patreon helps the Independents get paid.
