COPPA (Children's Online Privacy and Protection Act) and the FTC are responsible along with a bunch of nanny staters.

The legislation is written very poorly and the FTC threatens fines of ~$43k per violation to content creators.

@pjcomix Yes, I know your work and remember you from FR....glad to have you here.

Ah! I thought I recognized your Screen Name.

@pjcomix Yes, I know your work and remember you from FR....glad to have you here.

Yeah, I had the biggest PING list (still do) at FR for the DUmmie FUnnies although I got burned out at doing the written blog. Now I just do DUmmie FUnnies videos and to prevent burnout, I do non-political videos on weekends. I was just on a cruise to the Caribbean and out of nowhere someone asked me a current events question and I honestly told him that I was so into relaxing on the cruise that I couldn't get my mind to focus on politics at all. To tell the truth, I was more focused on my drinks.

p.s. I am sort of weening myself away from FR.

A lot of people here are former Freepers, I am sure you recognize a few names..some have changed them too.

You can put your youtube link in your tag line for all to see if you like...

@pjcomix  I'm a long-time fan of yours and Charles!  I'm so glad to see you here at TBR now.  As Myst says, we have a lot of former FReepers here, many came during the purge of 2016.

I am looking forward to seeing your articles here.  We have already seen many, as your excerpted NewsBusters articles come up.  We always excerpt articles, it's a Forum rule.

[PeteS in CA]

Ah! I thought I recognized your Screen Name.

I've been infesting 'net news/politics forums for over 21 years, using "PeteS in CA" for 20. I just use "SVPete" on CC and CU, for a reason that is over 5 years old and just as irrelevant and boring.

Charles and I met up in person for the first time last July in Tampa. He was there for a Lutheran convention and I was there with relatives to visit Weeki Wachee which wasn't far away so on the way home we met up for dinner.

Not sure I did it right for the tag line but I put it in Website Name and URL.  BTW, I am now working on a new DUmmie FUnnies video inspired by a post I read here.

[pjcomix]

Maybe this works. I'll see.

I read the other day that Weeki Wachie is getting rid of the Mermaids.  That makes me sad.

Have you ever met @Luis Gonzalez?  He used to live in your neck of the woods.  Mrs. Liberty and I have broken bread with him a couple of times.

Your link in your signature line works fine, Peej!

I hadn't heard that about the mermaids. That would be a stupid move to get rid of the mermaids since that is the main attraction there.

I am on your massive ping list at FR although I don't frequent that site. I loved both you and Charles when you both did "commentary". Welcome!

Welcome, welcome @pjcomix ... I am a fan. 

I am also a Youtube denizen. getting the lion's share of my entertainment there...
This is terribly frustrating to me, and i get why content providers are, yet again, shaking in their boots.

I tend to watch christian and homesteading/farming/ranching content, among other things, and these channels are firmly in the gray area of 'family friendly content', especially where christian and homesteading intersect...

Folks may not understand how drastic youtube is getting in its war against the right.
Of the 40 or so Christian channels I have had subbed, at my most recent cleaning, only around 10 remain... And it is nearly as bad in the homesteading stuff. Fully half of them are gone.

And I fully expect yet another decimation this January.

We desperately need another place to be.
