I’ve always wondered: When companies decide they need to look good for investors, it means to be clean and non-controversial. Why is this? Are investors old and out of touch or something?
They have to look good to advertisers. And the megacorps of the world need to be sure their brands are not associated with anything “controversial” so they can appeal to as many Americans as possible.
Are investors old and out of touch or something?
Yes.
Investors tend to be extemely risk averse, so the slightest little thing might scare them off. Even if they decide to take the chance anyway, they still want it to be as clean as possible, to minimizing the risk.
Even the slightest improvement may increase the investment by millions, or even billions, of dollars, so it’s worth the trouble.
First of all, who’s your AnR? A mountain climber that plays and electric gitarr? But eh don’t know the meaning of dope when he’s looking for suit 'n tie rap that cleaner than a bar of soap.
I feel like The Onion should host their own PeerTube instance, just for the sake of using an incredibly cheeky domain name like ifuckinghatewatching.video or something cooler like onion.media or something
why not just tetrahedron.global?
Infowars.video xD
Sony is finally going to release me!? Freedom!!!
To be fair there is quite a bit of swearing in the video.
I can see how they wouldn’t want it plastered on other websites that wouldn’t warn about the foul language.
Well…the title… And the content…
Yeah, because “naughty” language is SO harmful to anyone under 18 and can’t be freely found fucking everywhere that’s not patrolled by conservative nincompoops 🙄
You sure it’s YouTube that does this or the onion guys set a flag because of a profanity in the title?
Either way, it’s definitely YouTube that mandates annoying extra clicks to their frontend littered with ads and tracking cookies every time a video is age gated, which is the most infuriating part of this by far.
