Maybe, a rickety stack of volunteers relying on uncoordinated hobby projects may have regression tested coding standards above a multi-billion dollar market-cap corporation.

Or... is relying on installation obscurity for security theater.

Both options are likely to have kernel and other exploits published. A disposable phone for traveling into hostile territory is still recommended. =3



Are you sure this isn’t minor YouTube celebrity Ray William Johnson? =]


Would unlikely do YT content unless I needed a cheap video CDN or RTMP service.

Do people still make actual money competing with Slop clips? I wonder how often Alphabet actually cuts a meaningful check for long-tail content. =3


What’s that have to do with my stupid joke about your emoticon and Ray William Johnson’s =3?


Don't worry about it... =3


The answer is: as many times as it crosses their view threshold for payments lol


Ok, if YT pays $1k to $8k for 1m views, and has a minimum $100 check payout.

Than that is approximately 100k to 12.5k views to see even $100.

That exposure incurs around a 1% psychopathy rate for approximately 125 to 1000 users that would have no problem stealing your stuff.

I find it unbelievable people would actually sign up for that experience. =3
