New Ethereum powered Youtube alternative (open source)
We are promoting adoption of Ethereum, with a real world use case and open source code for others to use and copy. This is a post about technology’s advancement, more than our situation…
What's the problem?
The video website Rumble comes under pressure from the UK government to remove Russell Brand’s monetization or go offline, despite the fact that he has not yet been actually convicted of any crimes. This highlights the need for “encryption as identity” which is the concept that we can communicate without government DNS or IP addresses to reject censorship.
What's the solution?
Simplified Privacy is proud to announce a new Ethereum powered video website featuring animated shorts on technology, in partnership with DegenRocket. This website allows users to subscribe and comment using any Ethereum wallet, including Rabby and MetaMask. Videos can be upvoted similar to Lemmy/Reddit, and new content is sent to your Ethereum inbox by a framework from push.org to reject Youtube subscriptions. There are no gas fees or Eth costs to use the site, so a “burner” $0 balance wallet can be used for privacy.
We will be transitioning the front end to federation/IPFS and teaming up with other video creators in the future to create a more decentralized and free internet. Additionally, DegenRocket is open sourcing his code, so you can copy us.
Enjoy the new site:
