Should they send it to your home via pigeon?

They could at least provide a short summary of the video. From that title alone, I have no idea what to expect. This is some clickbait junk.

Thanks, you're right, I could have left a short summary. Here you go:

It's a TED talk from Carole Cadwalladr, a British Investigative Journalist, about the rise of technology, the downfall of democracy and the broad data/privacy problems that we all face.

Re: clickbait junk. Uh ok. If you say so 👍

You think the only options online are carrier pigeon or giant data gathering corporation? Seriously, maybe sit down and go through this community's posts for guidance on how to communicate without using data sponges.

Edit: literally less than a dozen posts earlier note, of all in that list peertube is probably the most relevant and that is simply video formats. You CAN communicate in forms other than video, like say in a substack blog.

The irony of your comment ending in a suckstack recommendation.

You're right. I don't use it and only suggested it because so many here do. So, the question is do you have a better suggestion or are you content to just bitch?

It's not communication unless someone hears it.
