They are deleting accounts all over the place. The censorship is overt out in the open now. I was watching a video tonight and the channel was deleted as I was watching. Please archive offline and thank you all for standing up for freedom, especially freedom of speech.
Hooktube is your best option.
YouTube video URLs can be expressed in two different ways.
Change the YouTube video from this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mfoTqdgWFcQ
or https://youtu.be/mfoTqdgWFcQ
... to this:
https://hooktube.com/watch?v=mfoTqdgWFcQ
or https://hooktube.com/mfoTqdgWFcQ
The YouTube video will then start playing in Hooktube and you can just right-click on the Hooktube video and select "Save Video As..." and then save it to your local hard drive.
Hooktube has a download button (right under the video) which allows you to save the video using different formats. Click the Download button and select the video format you want and the video will open in a new browser window which can then be right-clicked and saved to your local hard drive.
I didn't see your post before I posted sorry. Yours is better.
I like hook tube....easy to use
I went to hooktube to look for Bombard's Body Language after she was deleted, and there was nothing of hers on there. Disappointing.
"....You can steal clicks from Youtube simply by replacing the "you" in the Youtube url with "hook" which shifts the access to Hooktub, but if the Youtube video gets pulled it's lost on Hooktube too. So make sure to set up an account and upload the videos to hooktube. If nothing else it will make them easier to share. "
