I ask you to please judge me on the content and not the title of the video.
It's pretty hard to do that considering that the title is such utter bullshit.  I don't think you realise that even the major clickbait channels don't usually make titles as stupid as this.

Anyway, in the video your points aren't particularly good either.   Coinbase has not broken their customers' trust - in fact, they tried their absolute best to avoid giving up their customers' data - and the IRS did not do particularly well either.

Even if the IRS ends up finding up data about all their customers, the main effect will just be forcing people to pay taxes, which they legally should do anyway.  It'll be a problem for people's privacy to be violated, but P2P options will always be available whether they approve of it or not.

I can understand the distaste in the title, and I wish I did not feel like I have to construct videos this way. But unfortunately with YouTubes policy of not advertising any videos they can not make money on, I have to find ways to encourage clicks on my videos until I hit that 10k view threshold.

I do appreciate your feedback on my opinions.

IRS doesn't have this kind of right because bitcoin is decentralized, they can't do nothing. At the end, they will approve bitcoin transactions as legal transactions and people will be able to trade it legally in USA, I believe.

The IRS is people. All we need is enough people, and we can shut down the IRS.

You are only trying to get as many views as possible, i would not click on your link because you already said it: You are only trying to get views to earn money.

unfortunately with YouTubes policy of not advertising any videos they can not make money on, I have to find ways to encourage clicks on my videos until I hit that 10k view threshold.

Of course that i would ignore you in here, those kind of users in here are the same bullshit as those who are always posting crap in order to get paid, and honestly, i am tired of those users and that is an unsustainable situation.

The forum is full of that people, and i didn't knew that this was the "new generation" of crap posts.

What is going to be next? Clickbait to another blogs or articles?

So you "constructed" your video to meet certain conditions , not to be informative.
Clickbait title, wasted 30 seconds of my life on the video (I have a blocker so you won't earn a penny), you should be really proud of yourself.

Nobody is shutting anything.
If you really consider that you are supporting bitcoin, the first sign of that would be to change both titles.
But honor and greed don't make a happy couple.

We are already past that milestone.
I have a list of of users who are just opening threads to promote their "news" site with 3 lines articles.
