Hi guys, I have created a YouTube channel and a Rumble channel to archive my media appearances/interviews and other works. I will be uploading previous videos to those channels for now and will post new videos there in the future.
For a long time, I have avoided uploading to my own YT channel (especially) because of the mass censorship and deplatforming that goes on there. However, it is unlikely to get better and may only get worse. My guess is that it will become more difficult to start brand new channels/accounts in the near future.
In the EU, where I am based, they will begin implementing very strict regulations on journalists and content creators in the next year. If you follow my work, you will know that I have been warning about the upcoming European Media Freedom Act (EMFA) for the past year and a half. The EMFA will be in full effect by August 2025. This regulation centralizes the entire EU media sector into a single market overseen by a newly established European Board for Media Services. The EMFA also places restrictions on "media service providers" originating from outside the EU. And yes, this new law will apply to freelancers and new media organizations, not just the traditional, legacy media. It impacts everyone!
It is becoming clear that now is the time to ensure my work is available on multiple platforms and not just a few. I hope you will please subscribe to my channels. Thank you for your support!
