Thank you to people who have generously offered phone numbers or alternative video upload sites but the principle is more important than anything I'm doing or will ever do.
The only reason Facebook hasn't done exactly the same thing is they know you will quit if they try it. Facebook is too easy to replace.
There are ten years of my videos on YouTube and others I've made have come and gone over the years there. To use alternative sites means either to move those ones or start scattering myself around the place in some higgledy-piggledy (i.e. modern Internet) fashion. I'm on ReverbNation...no, wait...I'm on SoundCloud...no, hold it...I'm on ... I don't care.
The principle is the extortion and why should I not believe the same thing will not spread to all video hosting sites so long as YouTube continues this.
It's heartbreaking. America is so obsessed with this extortion of information that one old guy can't fuck around with his little videos for a circle of friends. Maybe we make bombs, right.
The extortion continues so long as people roll over.
