From the week of March 10, 2018 to April 22, 2018, Youtube took action to STOP content creators from using free and superior open source video formatting technologies OGG Theora Vorbis (https://xiph.org/). Why? Youtube has been silent, other than siding with the patented and licensed (fee based), closed source H.264 based technology, forcing creators to upload their work with inferior quality, at least doubling the size, doubling the storage and bandwidth requirements (DOUBLING the CARBON FOOTPRINT) to achieve the same communication satisfaction experience afforded prior to the week of March 10. Why is this seemingly insignificant fact worth a blog? Consider this simple analogy. What if in one instant you could no longer turn to your significant other, your loved one, perhaps only inches away, and tell them your thoughts and feelings, without paying a fee? After spending so much time communicating at no cost whatsoever, that fee based world might sting!
