> That sounds good in a vacuum, but what about when it's a handful of companies doing all of the broadcasting?
... are there not enough giant companies doing this thing that didn't exist a few years ago?
You realize you can pay for a VPS for $10 a month and broadcast to hundreds of people right?
> If this were the internet of the 2000s, with a widely distributed network of self-hosted blogs and BBs
Pretty sure all that stuff can still be done. Do you not realize you can rent a server and buy your own domain name? You can even rent a VPS with 40 gigabit internet and 10 terabytes of upload for around $20 a month.
> What about the little guy? What if it's the historically persecuted who continue to be persecuted when this all shakes out?
Lol, who are the historically persecuted that aren't able to stream video games because they can't help but violate twitch's TOS. I have a hard time believing this is even a serious conversation.
