What is this, Communist China? **Video link added**
So I logged into my youtube account and checked comments where people have replied to things I have posted on videos. I couldn't remember exactly what the video was so I clicked on it to view it.
I was stunned when I saw a message up top that said this video is not available in my country.
What the hell is this? Communist China? I can't view whatever the hell I want? I get to have google tell me I can't view a certain video? God I can't wait until Obama brings us more net censorship... it will make me feel even more free! NOT!
How long before websites like dailypaul are banned? Spreading the truth is a dangerous thing and they do not want us doing it.

What Is Pyrabang?
I'd love to find an alternative to youtube.

Please excuse this question,( the answer
is probably obvious to most of you who are knowledgeable users of the net and YouTube) is it impossible to use another website to spread videos and information? What about Pyrabang, I though it was set up as an alternative.
Is the problem that YouTube got there first and has the traffic sewn up; or does no one else have the funds to build a comparable web site to handle the traffic?
I have a question
Since Youtube is under a NAZI regime and they are censoring in accordance with the JDL. Where are we to go for free video uploads and viewing?
Can someone get a list of freedom of speech sites? Cause youtube is dead. Its bought and paid for by influences hell bent on shutting off the flow of truth in a sea of lies. The internet has a cancer. That cancer began with google. Now it has spread to youtube. Soon this great tool for freedom will die. wracking NAZI's.
Also this has another effect. I want to find out what these tools are banning. Inadvertently honing my interest into what they find threatening to their lies.

I called in January 5th, 2009 to talk about YouTube censorship; I call at 1:53:28 on the mp3 in the previous link, and again at 41:19 in the following mp3 link: January 6th, 2009
Here are the details of what I called about:
YouTube is blocking certain videos and YouTube Channels from users in the United States.
On Friday January 2nd, YouTube user downwardspiral http://www.youtube.com/do... posted a comment stating that a video called "Unconstitutional Agenda" was being blocked from the viewing of US YouTubers; I checked it out for myself, and sure enough, I got a message that read “This video is not available in your country."
Try it yourself; got to this channel http://www.youtube.com/va... and try to watch the video called "Unconstitutional Agenda".
Today, Sunday January 4th, I came across this comment on a YouTube video, “Death to America, Democracy, and Israel!
Free Palestine. Nuke Israel!
Stop U.S. sending our pennies and dimes to fund Israeli crimes!
Open your borders America!
Join our struggle and support Socialism and Jihad!
Heil Obama! Heil Hamas, Hiebollah, and Iran! Heil the Aryan race!
Join our protestors in the streets to help the children of Palestine!
We are the new majority in the USA and soon your families will all be slaughtered like dogs! George Bush can't save you now 3”
-by some Nazi pile of puke named “sighiesiegfried88”.
I clicked on the link to this Nazi’s YouTube account, trying to get some background information on him before starting a flame war with him, only to discover a message that read, “This channel is not available in your country.”
Try it yourself, chick here:
http://www.youtube.com/wa... and look at the second page of comments for the comment made by “sighiesiegfried88” (this comment has been marked as spam and you will have to click on the “show” button to read it. Next, click on the link to sighiesiegfried88’s channel and you will discover it to be blocked.
Entering the web address to the Nazi punk’s channel results in an error message. Try it for yourself:
http://www.youtube.com/si...
So, I have come across two instances where YouTube is blocking content from US users, this weekend alone. I need to know if any of you have encountered this yet on YouTube, we need to start a list of videos and channels that are being blocked in the US.
The Animal Farm can be heard weeknights at 6:00 PM EST on Freedom Underground Radio. Here’s the link:

If anyone has any specific videos or channels that this has happened on, email or call Tony Packes:

YouTube has teamed up with the JIDF (Jewish Internet Defense Force) to police YouTube and remove videos its members view as offensive or cast a bad light on Israel.
We are in the midst of a propaganda war right now, which has been ramped up ten-fold in the last week, in preparation for the Invasion of Gaza. I believe in the next few weeks the Gaza invasion will spill over into Iran, in the form of Israeli air strikes on selected Iranian targets.
Here is the JIDF’s website:

Here is the JIDF’s YouTube Channel:

There are playlists of the videos which the JIDF wishes it’s members to flag for deletion.

Sorry, but the archive page can be found at the first link I provided.
Not available
I have tried your link and there is a pink band at the top of the page stating: this video is not available in your country. (My country is UK) Can someone please explain? And isn't it time we questioned all this. Am now going to try the link from last week again....
I get that a lot now. I
I get that a lot now.
I live outside the US and catch this problem all the time. Soon I won't be able to watch any video from the US.
I guess this is like a backdoor type black out. If your country won't ban you from watching then the US will do it for them!
Here's proof youtube's being censored and monitored

Anti-Defamation League joins YouTube to fight online hate
By Haaretz Service
Tags: ADL, Internet, YouTube
The widely popular video sharing website YouTube has reached out to the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) for its expertise in dealing with hate on the Internet.
As a result of this partnership, the League is now a contributor to YouTube's newly launched Abuse & Safety Center, where users are empowered to identify and confront hate, and to report abuses.
In related News the ADL was convicted and sued for illegally harassing and spying on citizens:

The ADL Spying Case Is Over,
But The Struggle Continues
By Jeffrey Blankfort, Anne Poirier

Plaintiffs in the of ADL Spying Case
In 1993, the District of Attorney of San Francisco released 700 pages of documents implicating the Anti-Defamation League, an organization that claims to be a defender of civil rights, in a vast spying operation directed against American citizens who were opposed to Israel's policies in the Occupied West Bank and Gaza and to the apartheid policies of the government of South Africa and passing on information to both governments.
Well, Google's obviously bad for the Earth...

Please post a link to the
Please post a link to the specific video. Also, what country are you in?
If you're in the United States and youtube is censoring the video, I believe this would make for a very good news story. Especially if the censoring is due to the government.
What the hell is wrong with you?
Youtube has (and should have) the right to restrict their site in whatever manner they see fit. Freedom's not a one way street.
Well, consider this
it's a video about police doing political arrests in St. Paul before the republican convention. The story on the people who were arrested, telling their story. You tell me that youtube all by itself decided that the video needs to be banned? I don't think so.
They're only banning political stuff like that because of the govt asking them to. I fully believe that. Just how the air force now is doing counter blogging missions, making sure they try to counter any negative stuff said about the govt.
If youtube doesn't want to post a video of a murder on their website, that's one thing. I can see them saying they don't want something like that on their site. But it sickens me that they are banning this political stuff now.
And you're right, they have the right to ban whatever they want. But when you see people like Joe Lieberman on tv talking about how we need to censor things like youtube, and then all of a sudden youtube is censoring this stuff.... it kind of makes you think that the decision wasn't made fully by youtube.
It's due to copyright
issues.
Me Too
I uploaded a video I took from an OZZ fest where we passed out Ron Paul slim jims and it was up for over 1.5 years and recently was pulled due to copyright violation.
I had used Black Sabbaths "war pigs" as the background music.
It took them a while but they finally pulled it.
They sent me an email telling me that the owner of the song requested that it be pulled.
Gee thanks Sharon!!!
Try Liveleak for questionable material as they seem to be more tolerant.
Youtube is censoring
Youtube is censoring comments like mad. I had someone reply to a comment I put up ( I do so many, and I am sure it was good ) I forgot what I said, so I clicked and went back to the video, the guys response was there, but my comment was gone. This happens to me all the time. I have been paying attention at the censorship. Folks, we have been living in communism for a long time. Just not so much in your face. I expect they will come down on the dissenters soon. I think they are taking names. Its going to get bad.
It's probably the video owner
I routinely remove comments that contain profanity. Or at least I did. I haven't been making videos lately.
Nope
I don't think it was the owner. I only comment on freedom oriented videos. I try not use foul language ( well, most of the time ) although, for me it can be a hard thing to do sometimes :) I think I am on a list or something. I am sure I made the list. VIP status. Lol.
There is a simple way around it.
My sig used to contain a link to a BBC comedy sketch on youtube. People outside Britain kept getting "not available in your country" when they clicked on it. Eventually I posted a Canadian link to the same video. It worked. Everyone could watch it.
"That Socialism would be immediately practicable if an omnipotent and omniscient Deity were personally to descend to take in hand the government of human affairs is incontestable." - Ludwig Von Mises.
I agree
Last week the video I couldn't access through this site - comment: no longer available - was easily available by going through foreign links. I'm also a Brit btw - hi
Alright Mate. Always good to see fellow Brits on here.
Are you an LPUK member by any chance?
"That Socialism would be immediately practicable if an omnipotent and omniscient Deity were personally to descend to take in hand the government of human affairs is incontestable." - Ludwig Von Mises.
Yes, the UK is just as much in need of libertarians...
..if not more. Well, as much anyway. The erosion of liberty is horrifying. The newest plan is to demand ID for travel from this little island to the mainland - all in the interests of security of course. I'm not actually a LPUK member, because I am not able to vote in mainland elections. I just try to wake people up. But what I have discovered is that a number of people react apathetically: but what can you do it about it? Of course I tell them that the best thing is to inform others so that there is more resistance to introducing any further Big Brother laws, but they don't want to think it about it. We lived in Germany for many years and I have German relatives. The Nazis didn't announce their ultimate aim when they started introducing restrictions etc. Everyone thought it was for their own good! There are so many similar patterns emerging. So I was heartened to read elsewhere on the site about how awake many US citizens are to all this. Btw. I'm female (just referring to the term "mate") :-)
knoxknox are you from the Isle of Man? Jersey? Guernsey?
"That Socialism would be immediately practicable if an omnipotent and omniscient Deity were personally to descend to take in hand the government of human affairs is incontestable." - Ludwig Von Mises.
That would be telling...
:-) You're welcome to take a guess.
My first guess would be the Isle of Man.
Although, that is just a guess.
"That Socialism would be immediately practicable if an omnipotent and omniscient Deity were personally to descend to take in hand the government of human affairs is incontestable." - Ludwig Von Mises.
I'm wondering why you think the Isle of Man
Just curious....
More Libertarian than the Channel Islands? ;-)
Although, if you are asking me to guess, it could be somewhere more obscure like Sark. I'm just clutching at straws here.
"That Socialism would be immediately practicable if an omnipotent and omniscient Deity were personally to descend to take in hand the government of human affairs is incontestable." - Ludwig Von Mises.
Uh oh! This thread's being overrun by Brits!!
LOL Howdy mates!
New math!
While we're on the subject of British Ron Paul fans...
...I've just started guest blogging on here:
http://brits4ronpaul.blog...
"That Socialism would be immediately practicable if an omnipotent and omniscient Deity were personally to descend to take in hand the government of human affairs is incontestable." - Ludwig Von Mises.
I did check that site out recently,
but unfortunately there were no recent blogs. I just have the feeling that I'm not quite sure what the site is about. I guess the LPUK's manifesto is the basis. I am also not keen on sites with black backgrounds (if I'm honest this put me off immediately). Can't help it. It has certain associations for me and, despite any research to the contrary, I find them difficult to read. Purely personal taste. So I shall check it out from time to time to see how it develops. Well done to those who have taken the time to put it together, however. Libertarians are probably few and far between in our neck of the woods so we need to do all we can to spread the word, that's for sure.
Most of the International Ron Paul sites just gave up.
They stopped updating when Ron suspended his campaign. Matt Davies "mothballed" his site when he got busy with work. I thought, why not get the ball rolling again?

Good for you
I'll take another look.
Howdy!
Not trying to hijack it! It's just such a good site.
Yes it IS a good site! I just thought it was funny!
We can't start the R3VOLUTION without you! http://www.youtube.com/wa...
New math!
I can't get doodly from hulu
I'm in the Bahamas. THE BAHAMAS! 40 miles from FLa. fer Krissakes!!
Whatever happened to the 'world-wide-web'?
Mike N. is dead right about this (see below).
Incremental censorship. Whether by govt. or google. 'sall de same.
This revolution better hurry up and start or it's too late!!! Maybe it is already?....
Help us out here. What
Help us out here. What country are you in? Are you sure this is government censorship or is there some way for the poster of the video to decide what countries their videos are available in? Videos from ITV are only available in the UK for instance because the UK government is the copyright holder and that's how they want it. Is it possible that google goofed up and actually thinks you *are* in communist china? Can you find another video that is banned with the same message so we can take a look and figure what the trouble is?
Install and Use TOR
to get around it...
http://www.torproject.org...
Sounds good...
Except that I'm IN Communist China, and I can't hit that link.
or prison
my understanding is that prisons censor mail
Not only censorship
but lawsuits also in regard to what is posted on blogs.
"A Canadian model has filed a lawsuit against Google Inc., after an anonymous writer on the Internet giant's blogging service published what she says are defamatory statements."
http://www.calgaryherald....
It's for your own good.
Obviously, you can't be trusted with that sort of information.
Luckily, you have a benevolent government to intercede on your behalf and remove these potentially harmful things from view.
Thank goodness Mr. Obama will continue this benevolent agenda so thoughtfully put in place by his many predecessors.
I feel safe and warm...
I may not know the truth, but I know when I'm being lied to...
What's the difference?
Google has only come up with this policy based on suggestions of politicians who created a fear climate. Without govt doing the pushing, Google never would have even thought of doing this.
They've scared the people to death so they cry out, please save me from videos that scare me! The boogeyman is going to get me! So how can the corporate fascist world that Google exists in, resist their pleas? The political climate is ripe for censorship when it comes to anything to do with "terrorism"... or otherwise known as political activism, protesting... here in the USA.
Right - what's the difference?
In this country, the government and business are melding seamlessly into one entity.
Its called fascism, and that is where we're headed...
exactly
Why on earth would our government act like Communist China? That would wake people up. They get their corporations to do their bidding instead.
Imagine if our government was the ones developing tasers, pain ray weapons, etc? They always just get used on the people. They just allow the corporations to build all their stuff and then they figure... hey... that's a pretty good idea, guess we may as well use it since you developed it... all by yourselves... without any suggestions coming from the govt on what we'd like to use on the people.
That way corporations appear to be helping, doing their good deed to society by giving govt a way to control the "bad people". And everyone just welcomes them with open arms.
The difference
In Communist China, it would be the government that bans your video.
Here in Capitalist USA, it is Google that bans it.
How long until sites like the DP are banned? I doubt they'll be banned per se (this is America after all, the government isn't likely to ban it), but the costs will become prohibitively expensive. Maybe we'll see:
- A required license for having a website
- A surcharge for internet use
- A new regulation that holds me responsible for all the comments on the site, with personal liability for everything that is posted.
They won't outright ban it, they're smarter than that. They'll create the world they want in such a way that the majority of the people say, "Oh, that's a good idea / that's a good law / that is the right of private companies to have a separate, fast internet for corporations, and a slow internet for individual sites like the DP. That is the free market at work."
Banned
My site is banned by the US Army, but not Communist Vietnam. Scary.
