As far as I'm concerned Bitchute is dead. Lack of censorship was its only redeeming quality. It's slow and has security issues--do you really want third parties to be able to track which videos you are watching? They can through the bittorrent protocol.
Third parties can track you using multiple vectors, especially considering most people are not using VPNs anyway.
You don't want to use p2p video delivery? Well good luck building a modern independent service that doesn't crash under load.
Whats funny is if BC just stayed a way to link video torrents they would be fine. However BC themselves seeded every video. Channel owners could seed there own videos using WebTorrent.
The problem is trying to explain even the concept of BitTorrent to the elderly assholes working in the Judaical systems in the North America and across Europe.
The pirate bay had to repeatedly tell people they were not hosting the content being shared. When that finally sunk in then people started saying well they can stop listing content then and we should do the same to Google. Because they used Google as an example trying to beat the most basic aspect of file sharing into these people's heads.
