I don't think you're wrong de facto, and the intentions of the tariffs are certainly different from the results.

Not a Trump supporter btw, just skeptical of each and every neocon/neolib that sets foot near business regulations and PAC money.

"don't do evil"

Thanks for cross posting.

Dear Jeff,

love your channel.

I think the biggest gift of Jeff's channel and others like it in the DiY space outshines far above corporate darlings like LMG and others. The reason I think this about Jeff's channel is that it is a gift of education on how to relay opinions, media, and data ownership in a world dominated by EULAs and advertising.

What Google and Tech don't understand is that the content created on those platforms truly isn't theirs. It may be monetized on those platforms, but the second they start doing things, like feeding digests of political content and reactions to subvert the people and their free speech, the platform becomes part of the digital handcuffs, the "free as in beer" solution that subverts the conversations and the people.

Moreso than LMG or anyone else adjacent in the tech YouTube space, Jeff's bright smile and your good attitude brings something to the table that these corporations can't comprehend the value behind: freedom from popularity contents. Freedom from censorship and platform lock-in.

Thanks.

But it's icky because the issue of remuneration for legacy actors remains the unspoken part here. Actors train for their whole lives and these models have the potential to undermine the value of these actors.
