Platforms love to use this threat… “if you regulate us we’ll just withdraw services in your jurisdiction”. They never do,
Pornhub pulled out of 17 states. You need to buy a hustler magazine now. Australia will just have to buy National Enquirer magazines instead of doom scrolling for their fix.
It’s still not entirely clear how the Australian government thinks they’re actually going to enforce this.
<socialMediaOperators> Since identity verification checks for minors is an absolute nightmare security scenario we are deciding to pull all operations out of Australia.
¡Gettin Khan-ed over 'ere!
Please, Please, Please let the second continuation of this comic be him hearing a doorbell, grabbing some of his guns, then looking through the door’s peep hole to see two Mormon’s in suits holding a Bible.
Well well well,
Once, not if, but once it leaks, who ordered this, and who executed said order of this information being suppressed, you’ll have more heads in line for the guillotine.
¡Congrats!
The fowl was foul duck.
It looks like it’s currently out of my price bracket. I guess I need to grind more on getting more subscribers before I can have a budget to spend on a platform for archival purposes.
Thanks for the suggestion but I’m currently underemployed and this cost is more than I can afford at this current point in my life. Any monthly costs to me ultimately need to be offset by subscription revenue and i just don’t have a large enough of a base on twitch to cover this cost yet.
I didn’t know that was a thing. Where can I look for potential clients to purchase said stock footage?
I don’t watch TV or movies anymore. The last film I remember watching, I was in a military PAX (PAssenger Transport) terminal awaiting a bird to take this princess to another castle, and some troll thought it’d be a good idea to leave the movie, “Black Hawk Down” playing for everyone waiting for their bird to touch down. It wasn’t looking good for the protagonists and I had to leave before the movie was over. I then later experienced extreme turbulence due to a sandstorm and we had to make an unscheduled landing (luckily at somewhere I also had equipment to service) but during the whole ordeal I thought I was going to die. I then made the realization that watching TV/Movies just raises my cortisol levels, and why am I doing that to myself? I don’t want that. I stopped watching TV and Movies after that. I just create content now. I only listen to music for my media consumption. I just don’t get people that need to watch horror to be terrified. I don’t need horror to be terrified. I can just, turn on the TV, or, go outside!
Indeed, I’m a broke wook looking to get paid. The getting paid aspect isn’t a hard requirement but I would like that option, /if it’s available/. The primary concern is archiving old content. I can work on monetization through live streaming or other means. As it stands I can either let content become dust blown in the wind or it can be archived somewhere. Twitch highlights (as of now) seem to last forever, I guess I can always make a highlight starting at t=+00:10 and ending at t=-00:10 but IDK if I’ll eventually get an email from twitch saying that I’m “using too much storage”.
Monitization isn’t a ‘hard requirement’, just a very icing on the cake. The content is really for others’ enjoyment. I don’t need to be recording said content. I was asked by someone, “Do you record/stream this? People would be interested in watching!” and at that point I wasn’t recording but I decided to start. I’m currently just hovering around 123 interested individuals and/or botnet operators following me. Monitization doesn’t have to be through the video being viewed on said hosted platform, any donations into my wallet address or PayPal address (which I’m trying to figure out how to set up to receive funds while not doxing me)
<types in safari> But what about Apple?!?! Can’t they strong arm this?
So what it boils down is companies are going to try to cut off their user base if they don’t view ads? People will complain they can’t view their page and cancel their subscription? Nobody’s going to willingly install a browser that won’t let you install an adblocker, right?
Can someone explain how the server is going to know whether or not the client browser is showing the ad? A stealthy browser would say, “hey yeah send that ad so I can render it to the user” and the server says, “yeah ok” and then <doesntRenderAdOnClientDevice>. How is the server going to know whether the ad is displayed or not? Don’t current gen adblockers not even retrieve the asset? If the asset was retrieved but not displayed, how (if even) can this be monitored?
