The Pirate Bay To Create YouTube Competitor

Posted by kdawson on from the torrential dept.

Jared writes "The Pirate Bay has confirmed that is working on a streaming video site with user-generated content. A spokesman said the site will be modeled after YouTube but there will be 'no censorship': The Pirate Bay 'will not be the moral police' and determine what content stays or goes as is oftentimes the case with YouTube. He added that 'the community will have to do that.'" The site will be at thevideobay.org, but nothing is up there for the public yet.

    I mean, honestly. Freedom of speech and what not. From aside it looks as if they weren't happy they got away so easily last time, so they decided to push their luck further.

    I see no use of their service, YouTube isn't exactly repressive and brutally censoring free speech, is it.
