Facebook limit visibility of my latest youtube upload (watched by over 20k in 3 days)

in #censorship5 years ago (edited)

Entitled 'Wall St is manipulating the price of BTC' it is cut from an old TV show I found (uploaded in July) and over 20,000 people have watched it since I uploaded 3 days ago. 'Glenn Beck discusses the great bitcoin conspiracy' can be found in its original form here

Normally I can expect no more than 50 views in the first 3 days, so this film has clearly struck a chord with many, 600 of whom took the time to leave me a thumbs up.

The multitude of comments appearing under the film are worth checking out.

Facebook regional censorship

On Facebook they have removed the thumbnail image from the film, which feels a bit like the reduced visibility of posts on steem when they have been downvoted by many.

For those of you wondering, all my other youtube links on FB still have their thumbnail, so I can be sure this one has been removed intentionally.

Doesn't seem like too many people on FB saw it based on the low activity, which was entirely from steem users.

A family member confirmed this morning the thumbnail is visible in the US, yet here in France it has been removed.

No doubt on the basis of fake news & the fact that the French are all looking for answers right now.

Time to talk crypto?

I have had more subscriptions to my YouTube channel in the last 3 days than in the last 3 years and I am wondering now if I should give them what they came for and start making more crypto films?

Before my YouTube channel is removed!

Which would be fine because everything is backed up through BitTube & DTube 😉
