Quick, if not slightly approximative, origin story. - Rich philanthropist hires Louis to be the director of FUTO. - FUTO created an app named [REDACTED] that allows people to follow their favorite creators on whatever platform they may be on, as opposed to their favorite creators' CZcams or twitch accounts, which have proven to be vulnerable to arbitrary instant death when the platforms don't like something they said - CZcams is crapping their pants at the idea that [REDACTED] facilitates the migration of content creators to other platforms, thus them sending the laughable C&Desque letter - but our new superhero, RossMann, has funds for his superheroic acts now, and no customer exploiting corporate bullies will stand in his path
Downloaded the app. Thank you Louis for helping to bring this app to us, but an even BIGGER thank you to CZcams for signal boosting it to millions more by way of their braindead actions! 👌
Typical Google: -Stock legal letter. -Not actually looking into things. -Scare tactics. -Anti-competitive. If you take them to court, you'll take them to the cleaners. I hope you do too because I'm so sick of big corporations throwing their weight around to suppress everyone else.
the issue with that is they have enough money to drag the case out until he runs out of money making him give up before he got a chance to win. plenty of people have had solid cases.. they just know google would bully them into debt instead of doing the right thing.

@@TNM001 Good to know we have a fucking optimist. You know that groups of people with your mentality are the reason nothing fucking changes? *You* may not care, and in which case I hope you enjoy owning nothing, having the ability to create and be financially successful be removed as an option, and always work for people that destroyed the ladders to where they stand while actively looking to replace you with a machine. But you don’t speak for everyone, so enjoy not caring about shit that matters while others choose to not care about you. You live in a world where doing nothing will result in the majority being on a leash while turned against each other in a dog fight ring while kept into submissive poverty. Change ain’t fast, but it happens if you try in at least 60% of cases, and that’s enough to want to try. Louis has succeeded more in his efforts for right to repair than anyone, and has had people to help him reach that point, so go huddle in a corner and speak for yourself.

As always, I learned something. Louis is going Super Saiyan on bullies. The more bullies he defeats the stronger he becomes. He hasn't reached his final form yet, so watch out!

Perfect timing with CZcams rolling out double ad breaks at the beginning of videos. As in watch 5 seconds, skip adS have to watch another 5 seconds, skip adS or double unskippable ads.
CZcams managers - "People seem to be blocking ads for some reason... I know what will fix this.... Quickly. Double the ads!" Me - "I didn't mind when it was 1 ad and you shared the revenue. Maybe try that again?"
It's been revealed that it's working. They're driving hoards of people to pay for premium because the ad supported version is utterly intolerable. Subscriptions have become much more profitable than ad revenue on YT.
People upload their videos, CZcams hosts them but then tries to inject advertising, people figure out workarounds. It’s nothing but data, after all. Google doesn’t own any of it & we don’t need to play “make believe” that they do have any ownership.
The public needs to realize that together we have more power than these bullies as Louis rightly calls them. It's easy for them to use scare tactics against a small minority, but when its not so small anymore they will be forced to come to the table.
We did it with But light. I think Americans are slowly, very slowly waking up. Hopefully not too late. Most in my family are so apathetic they don't care.
If the people, government, local companies, lawyers, or national corporations make you sign a document or use a shrink-wrap contract on you, then YES, you are told how you must live your lives or be punished according to TOS or contract terms. As an example how local companies can direct how your future life must be lived, in my state, a number of local companies put non-compete clauses into the employment contract that lasts up to three years after you are no longer employed at the company. For example, you can be forced to never work for a competitor up to 3 years. Greedy companies tried to change no-compete to last five years, but that was struck down in our state supreme court.
@@naekosl3059sad reality ey? And the thing that annoys me is that it's either A or B, but there's no option for C because it's either underdeveloped, or doesn't exist, so you need to either use A or B just so you can get by, but if you do so you're tied to whichever binding agreements they're laying out for you to comply with, and freedom is perceived instead.

It baffles me how lazy the anti-trust, anti-monopoly agencies are in the USA. Maybe I'm ill informed on what they do quietly, or that it tends to be tech news that I follow, but a case against Microsoft almost 30 years ago over IE, then some concerns more recently over them buying Activision Blizzard. Finally going after Google over ads is I suppose positive, but will wait and see what the outcome of that will look like. Not exactly a stellar list of cases. Then the fines if anything, mean so little to those companies that could be called a rounding error. One upside is that it makes what the EU is doing or trying to do, look pretty impressive in comparison. Not just that they can have multiple cases going on at the same time, but when it gets to issuing a fine, it can be up to 5 or 10% of yearly revenue, not just profit
I'm honestly glad that they stand up but like Louis said in the video, he has enough money to back himself up in court. Many projects don't have that same blessing. And when taking on legal battles money is a requirement because lawyers are expensive.

Wait, so they accuse you of using their tools to make your stuff without proof? So this initial letter was a scare tactic? Yeah, that sounds about right for what they will do. Don't take down the "bad" stuff but focus on any possible competition.

@@witherschatHmm, libertarians have been telling me that regulations actually tend to create monopolies. One example David Knight, a libertarian said on his podcast was how the big banks would lobby for banking regulations that smaller rural banks couldn't comply with because they lacked the money that big banks had/and still have so they folded and were bought by the big banks. And then these same banks would lobby to have those regulations eased after they gobbled up the competition. The same happened with the big department and warehouse store chains. The mom and pop shops could not comply with the regulations because they didn't have the money. And there are other crony capitalist moves like bailouts for the rich whenever a big corporation is on the verge of bankruptcy or the PPP (Public-Private Partnership) or DARPA directly or indirectly funding the creation of the internet, FB, Google, Twitter and other ventures. We don't live in a free market system because we don't have a limited government. That is why lobbying is a career job just like being a politician.
@Aquatarkus96 Do you think that Citizens United gave corporations and unions the ability to give money to federal political candidates? Because it didn't. That's the only way I can see someone making a statement like "money isn't speech" in regards to Citizens United. The case actually involved a group that was prevented from broadcasting a political attack against a candidate. The people who wanted to retain this right of censorship attempted to reduce it to a question of money since obviously almost everyone would have to pay in order to get their message out, but at the end of the day, it really was about speech and the ability to get a particular message out. Using the same "money isnt speech" reduction, you could pretty much censor any type of political speech you wanted from just about anyone you wanted outside of direct person to person speech since pretty much anything, including what i am typing to you right now, could be argued is spending money on political speech since I paid for internet access to be able to post this comment which is discussing politics. It could get very ugly very fast if people you disagree with were the ones who got to decide what counts and what doesn't.
@@whatevergoesforme5129 From the moment they're lobbying, it's the money making the rules. If they have that power, they already have an effective monopoly. It's the same thing as dropping your price and selling at a loss to drive competition out before getting them back up. If they can do that, they are in practice a monopoly. The problem here isn't regulations, it's the fact that you can buy regulations with money. Another issue with the American economy that can be traced back to Reagan.
Nah, New York itself will get rid of any superhero who is sane through high rent prices and asinine bureaucracy and laws. You need to be a deluded nationalist to defend the USA's capital of gross income per capita with some of the highest taxes, yet also a rapidly growing homeless population, crime rates, and worsening infrastructure. And the only superhero who fits the "deluded nationalist" branding is Captain America himself.
Hey Louis, I don't know wether you'll read my random Comment but I want to let you know, that for the past 9 Years of my life I have followed your Advice in Life which slips trough every video of yours and I have learned so much about strenght and determination, will and patience aswell as reignited my own inner fire to finally get my life going.

The Streisand effect is quite powerful! Before watching this video I had never heard of FUTO, but now I'm sitting here thinking this Grayjay thing seems pretty dope.
thats not the Streisand effect.. thats when someone trys to hide something making more people aware and curious about said thing having the opposite intended effect. this is just you hearing about something in a video and being curious about it.
@@fatfurie it’s closely related at least. YT tried to stop grayjay and because of that the news about it spread more than if it would’ve just been an announcement about it existing or something. that’s basically the same effect. sending a cease and desist letter is the same thing a trying to censor something, even if the thing is code
You're about to discover why there hasn't been dozens of video platforms when the technology, methodology, and hosting space to do so is solid. America's anti-trust laws are not enforced.
If anyone ever asks me how does "Chaotic Good" looks like... this. That's how it looks. Threats? No... but, if you'll inconvenience me enough I'll might just become the president and change some laws to specifically target you for the next century. You want petty? I guarantee you'll not out-petty me. Seriously now, if not for Louis, it would be even worse. So, thank you Louis, for trying to make this cesspool of a planet somewhat more bearable for the rest of us.
I was always irritated by the kids playing Chaotic and thinking it meant they could do whatever they wanted to. I've always thought it had more to do with deliberate *refusal* to follow law/order, which Mr. Rossman doesn't really exhibit.
I don’t demand regulations I have simply lost faith in humanities ability to not fall victim to modern marketing power. If there was truly a better alternative to CZcams then that is the solution; a new platform that is better. If it gets bad eventually then another. And another. But unfortunately because you need the type of funding CZcams has to compete with google it will take some time. I have faith CZcams is not forever though. Nothing is and the first websites to serve their market are never the last ones when things are said and done
Regulation enables corporations to do BS like this by suppressing competition, which would actually hold them accountable. What they sent Rossmann was just pages of legalese. They're threatening legal action. This is literally an example of regulation gone awry. How will more regulation help?
I think it's fair to say we have had plenty of laws and regulations already. Part of the problem is the will of those who we task to enforce them or should. Along with the follow-through consequences that match the crime, not letting a financial institution pay their equivalent of a parking ticket for brazen theft. The other part is when lawyers achieve power enough to jettison regulations that kept the machinery of the economy and society (and potential monopolies) in check to some degree. Like Clinton tossing Glass-Steagall and turning the housing loan market into a casino for instance. @@hagoryopi2101
@@hagoryopi2101 what regulations stop people from competing with youtube? there are cases where there are too many regulations and I can name a few examples, but this isn't one of them. it's not about too many or even too few regulations, there are regulations put in place that would fuck google in more than one area, but they aren't enforced. why? Because the government turns a blind eye as long as google collaborates with PRISM. The problem is corruption of the highest order.

- FUTO created an app named [REDACTED] that allows people to follow their favorite creators on whatever platform they may be on, as opposed to their favorite creators' CZcams or twitch accounts, which have proven to be vulnerable to arbitrary instant death when the platforms don't like something they said
- CZcams is crapping their pants at the idea that [REDACTED] facilitates the migration of content creators to other platforms, thus them sending the laughable C&Desque letter
- but our new superhero, RossMann, has funds for his superheroic acts now, and no customer exploiting corporate bullies will stand in his path
Too bad the cage match is rigged because only one of the participants is giving the government user data.
@@kyushirokunyay! Thank you!
Too bad Alphabet is providing the government with user data, so they get preferential treatment.
Downloaded the app. Thank you Louis for helping to bring this app to us, but an even BIGGER thank you to CZcams for signal boosting it to millions more by way of their braindead actions! 👌

Good to know we have a fucking optimist. You know that groups of people with your mentality are the reason nothing fucking changes? *You* may not care, and in which case I hope you enjoy owning nothing, having the ability to create and be financially successful be removed as an option, and always work for people that destroyed the ladders to where they stand while actively looking to replace you with a machine. But you don’t speak for everyone, so enjoy not caring about shit that matters while others choose to not care about you.
You live in a world where doing nothing will result in the majority being on a leash while turned against each other in a dog fight ring while kept into submissive poverty. Change ain’t fast, but it happens if you try in at least 60% of cases, and that’s enough to want to try. Louis has succeeded more in his efforts for right to repair than anyone, and has had people to help him reach that point, so go huddle in a corner and speak for yourself.

Zero effort. Fully automated message. Someone got buttblasted and pressed the big button that said "send scary letter," put in the email address, and it automatically sent a form letter trying to be as intimidating as possible.
Human review does not exist on this website.
Perfect timing with CZcams rolling out double ad breaks at the beginning of videos. As in watch 5 seconds, skip adS have to watch another 5 seconds, skip adS or double unskippable ads.
CZcams managers - "People seem to be blocking ads for some reason... I know what will fix this.... Quickly. Double the ads!"
Me - "I didn't mind when it was 1 ad and you shared the revenue. Maybe try that again?"
It's been revealed that it's working. They're driving hoards of people to pay for premium because the ad supported version is utterly intolerable. Subscriptions have become much more profitable than ad revenue on YT.

Yep. Louis is a strong minded man who has a passion and a goal.
You go Louis Rossmann ! Right there with you !!! Really tired of all the big corps telling us how we have to live our lives ?
If the people, government, local companies, lawyers, or national corporations make you sign a document or use a shrink-wrap contract on you, then YES, you are told how you must live your lives or be punished according to TOS or contract terms. As an example how local companies can direct how your future life must be lived, in my state, a number of local companies put non-compete clauses into the employment contract that lasts up to three years after you are no longer employed at the company. For example, you can be forced to never work for a competitor up to 3 years. Greedy companies tried to change no-compete to last five years, but that was struck down in our state supreme court.
@@naekosl3059sad reality ey? And the thing that annoys me is that it's either A or B, but there's no option for C because it's either underdeveloped, or doesn't exist, so you need to either use A or B just so you can get by, but if you do so you're tied to whichever binding agreements they're laying out for you to comply with, and freedom is perceived instead.

Wonderful. Yeah, stand up to the bully corporations. no matter WHO they are. Good for you Louis. 👍
It baffles me how lazy the anti-trust, anti-monopoly agencies are in the USA. Maybe I'm ill informed on what they do quietly, or that it tends to be tech news that I follow, but a case against Microsoft almost 30 years ago over IE, then some concerns more recently over them buying Activision Blizzard. Finally going after Google over ads is I suppose positive, but will wait and see what the outcome of that will look like. Not exactly a stellar list of cases.
Then the fines if anything, mean so little to those companies that could be called a rounding error. One upside is that it makes what the EU is doing or trying to do, look pretty impressive in comparison. Not just that they can have multiple cases going on at the same time, but when it gets to issuing a fine, it can be up to 5 or 10% of yearly revenue, not just profit
@@benwu7980*EU knows how to make them hurt, US knows how to make them laugh. Cheers!*

I've always found your attitude inspiring.
As long as we allow unlimited donation to (actually investments in) politicians, these monopolies will never face anti-trust enforcement.
Exactly. We're witnessing the dangers of unregulated capitalism. Monopoly is the stable state of a truly free market.
Citizens United MUST be repealed. Money is not speech.
@@witherschatHmm, libertarians have been telling me that regulations actually tend to create monopolies. One example David Knight, a libertarian said on his podcast was how the big banks would lobby for banking regulations that smaller rural banks couldn't comply with because they lacked the money that big banks had/and still have so they folded and were bought by the big banks. And then these same banks would lobby to have those regulations eased after they gobbled up the competition. The same happened with the big department and warehouse store chains. The mom and pop shops could not comply with the regulations because they didn't have the money.
And there are other crony capitalist moves like bailouts for the rich whenever a big corporation is on the verge of bankruptcy or the PPP (Public-Private Partnership) or DARPA directly or indirectly funding the creation of the internet, FB, Google, Twitter and other ventures.
We don't live in a free market system because we don't have a limited government. That is why lobbying is a career job just like being a politician.
@Aquatarkus96 Do you think that Citizens United gave corporations and unions the ability to give money to federal political candidates? Because it didn't.
That's the only way I can see someone making a statement like "money isn't speech" in regards to Citizens United.
The case actually involved a group that was prevented from broadcasting a political attack against a candidate.
The people who wanted to retain this right of censorship attempted to reduce it to a question of money since obviously almost everyone would have to pay in order to get their message out, but at the end of the day, it really was about speech and the ability to get a particular message out.
Using the same "money isnt speech" reduction, you could pretty much censor any type of political speech you wanted from just about anyone you wanted outside of direct person to person speech since pretty much anything, including what i am typing to you right now, could be argued is spending money on political speech since I paid for internet access to be able to post this comment which is discussing politics. It could get very ugly very fast if people you disagree with were the ones who got to decide what counts and what doesn't.
@@whatevergoesforme5129 From the moment they're lobbying, it's the money making the rules. If they have that power, they already have an effective monopoly.
It's the same thing as dropping your price and selling at a loss to drive competition out before getting them back up. If they can do that, they are in practice a monopoly.
The problem here isn't regulations, it's the fact that you can buy regulations with money. Another issue with the American economy that can be traced back to Reagan.
Marvel: "We need a superhero for New York. Let's go with Steve Rogers."
Me, an intellectual: "What about an *actual* superhero from New York?"
Nah, New York itself will get rid of any superhero who is sane through high rent prices and asinine bureaucracy and laws. You need to be a deluded nationalist to defend the USA's capital of gross income per capita with some of the highest taxes, yet also a rapidly growing homeless population, crime rates, and worsening infrastructure. And the only superhero who fits the "deluded nationalist" branding is Captain America himself.

I was always irritated by the kids playing Chaotic and thinking it meant they could do whatever they wanted to. I've always thought it had more to do with deliberate *refusal* to follow law/order, which Mr. Rossman doesn't really exhibit.
CZcams's insane rules that are selectively applied and constantly changed makes even the most hardcore libertarians demand regulations.
I don’t demand regulations I have simply lost faith in humanities ability to not fall victim to modern marketing power. If there was truly a better alternative to CZcams then that is the solution; a new platform that is better. If it gets bad eventually then another. And another. But unfortunately because you need the type of funding CZcams has to compete with google it will take some time. I have faith CZcams is not forever though. Nothing is and the first websites to serve their market are never the last ones when things are said and done
Regulation enables corporations to do BS like this by suppressing competition, which would actually hold them accountable.
What they sent Rossmann was just pages of legalese. They're threatening legal action. This is literally an example of regulation gone awry. How will more regulation help?
I think it's fair to say we have had plenty of laws and regulations already. Part of the problem is the will of those who we task to enforce them or should. Along with the follow-through consequences that match the crime, not letting a financial institution pay their equivalent of a parking ticket for brazen theft.
The other part is when lawyers achieve power enough to jettison regulations that kept the machinery of the economy and society (and potential monopolies) in check to some degree. Like Clinton tossing Glass-Steagall and turning the housing loan market into a casino for instance. @@hagoryopi2101
@@hagoryopi2101 what regulations stop people from competing with youtube? there are cases where there are too many regulations and I can name a few examples, but this isn't one of them. it's not about too many or even too few regulations, there are regulations put in place that would fuck google in more than one area, but they aren't enforced. why? Because the government turns a blind eye as long as google collaborates with PRISM. The problem is corruption of the highest order.
