    Default Isegoria - a new media platform from Ben Swann and others

    Could this be the YouTube/(Google/CIA) replacement? Just saw this today, and wanted to get a few more eyes looking into it:

    Hey Bill, if this is legit, how about getting a Project Avalon channel going on Isegoria, from the ground floor?

    Yes, I am asking Bill in particular, and other non-mainstream-narrative content creators, to investigate whether this appears to be legitimately aimed at "an uncensored, blockchain-based, decentralized news and entertainment platform."

    Also, I don't know much of anything about Ben Swann (the cornerstone of this new platform.) I don't watch TV so I don't know his background. From a few clips that I have seen, he appears to be sort of a "rogue reporter", a "truth teller" who awoke while working in mainstream media, but yet, does he have financial backing from the same 6 miscreant corporations that control mainstream media? I'm not suggesting an NSA/CIA/FBI-style in-depth probe into Swann's character, (where we might find out he likes beer!), but at least a 'due diligence' look into who he is and whether it is wise for a high-integrity alternative media person/entity to jump aboard the "Isegoria" train.

    Mike 'Health Ranger' Adams also has an uncensored platform available, but my guess is that Ben Swann's following is much greater and so is much more likely to have content seen by many more people.

    I had a look. I don't know who Ben Swan is either but that's not what got my attention the most. I'd like know more about how the 'community' voting works. It sounds like a setup that lets stuff people don't want to hear get lost at the bottom of a pile, while popular stuff would peak like an electronic LR resonator. That would be a recipe for an unstable oscillator of memes and distraction.

    I heard a new platform was about to be announced ( from Matt Bracken ). I'm hoping this isn't it. I was expecting something more substantial, ready to roll, and definitely not crypto currency rewards, as this will be. This feels more like another doomed fringe backwater that most of the world will never go to. We need a platform like Youtube that isn't Youtube, or better still, Youtube under completely new management.

    It's kind of interesting that on the Isegoria front page with the mission statement, etc. (at the link provided in the OP), in the photo of the one woman, Annabelle Bamforth, which appears among all the men, her mouth is completely covered up by the letters of her name. And in their email contact page, you are only allowed to submit your comment or question if you identify yourself as either having another question or as an accredited investor.
    It would be most informative to know who the investors are, and what their motivations might be.
