CODOH BITCHUTE CHANNEL and many others UNAVAILABLE in my country

[Revision]

Suddenly a large part of Bitchute channels are now unavailable at least in my country. I am from European country that has no Holocaust denial laws.


Some unavailable Bitchute channels:

CODOH
Jim Rizoli
Holocaust Lies Exposed
Based Documentaries
Zionist Report
TheFascifist
Andkon's Reich
Judaism is Based (A jewish identity and antirevisionist channel)
Armageddon
Totenkopfelite
Ashesx
Das Schwarze Korps (This guy had ONLY 70-80 subscribers)
Anarchore (an anarchist)
Rumpelstiltskin
MartinezPerspective
Mukunda_Dasa_108
Angry Tomatoes
卐HS the National Socialist卐
ACHTUNG JUDEN
GypsyCrusander


I have currently 513 subscribers, which is more than Judaism is Based, Das Schwarze Korps and Anarchore for example, and I am amazed that I was not banned or made unavailable in my country.

This is what happens when I try to access these channels or their videos:

Bitchute has never been a good platform from a technical point of view. It seems like its only advantage (not censoring) is rapidly disappearing.

A recent development across all countries (I think):

Bitchute has now banned the keyword "Holocaust." Any search for this word in the Bitchute search-box now yields "No Results."

Also banned are "Holohoax," "gas chambers," "Anne Frank," and a few others.

Holocaust Lies Exposed

This person or people is/are among the leading providers Holocaust Revisionist material in the world today. Bitchute 8300 subscribers, new videos frequently (usually more than one a day), and even so videos get into the thousands of views even soon after posting. (Some of the popularity is because some of the material is salacious and openly anti-Semitic.) CODOH does similar effort but posts more serious content, but only has 1435 subscribers and gets views in the dozens to low hundreds.

It would be good if there were more attempts via social media to post material from this forum. Video is good for propaganda but the written word is inevitably more serious.

The message reads

BITCHUTE

Unavailable Content

This video is unavailable as the contents have been deemed potentially illegal within your country by our moderation team.

So it is Bitchute doing it and not anyone in the country's government. Unless they've just made a technical error (thinking IP addresses from Country A are really from neighboring Country B, in which B has Holocaust Denial laws), they may be thinking they can justify it with general Hate Speech laws.

Problem that I have with Bitchute is that videos just do not want to start. My internet is fine.

This is one of many problems with Bitchute. There are problems for viewers, for content-creators/uploaders, to searchers (either in-channel or the general search), and to commenters. (One of these is the total loss of content; all the comments ever uploaded to Bitchute were permanently deleted a few months ago.)

Youtube used to have the same "slow start" and "buffering" problem in its earliest days in the 2000s but general Internet-connection speeds were slower too.

Probably they are doing it so that the website can operate in these countries. Fortunately, it is rather easy to bypass these blocks by using a proxy.

As for:

Does this also happen for terms not related to the big H?

My country has no laws prohibiting Holocaust revisionism but some "hate speech" laws we still have. I wonder if Bitchute has some kind of list of "hate speechers" that they make unavailable in different countries if they get demanded to do something. What's most bothering for me is how quite small channels get also targeted with this and if there is some kind of ban awaiting for me. Presumably most people do not automatically use VPN and these channels will not be recommended to them in my country and in other countries that have practiced this.

Get a VPN & switch to a US server. Sure, you’ll get slower speeds, but Bitchute doesn’t have VPN blocks. I use Express VPN(I’m in the US myself, but doesn’t hurt either way), and it’s the best for getting around geo-censorship & for privacy.

It's not your nation only, they ban the whole thing on there over the world, better to move peertube soon.
