I was kind of wondering how long it would be until something like this happened.
When we talk about something we watched on Facebook, most people would call it a Facebook video.
When talking about something we watch on YouTube, people usually call it a YouTube video.
It's probably only be a matter of time until someone tries to find a (formerly twitter) video and ends up on xvideos instead. I could totally see a lot of non-tech-friendly people accidentally doing that, and then telling all of their friends/family that (formerly twitter) is now just full of nudity and porn.
@MapleCoffee @gsa32, apart from copyright claims from xvideo.com
Oh, I wasn't trying to say that that would be the official name. I think lot of people would probably call it that just because we use that style of description for other platforms.
If someone somehow wasn't familiar with xvideos, they would definitely be suprised lol.
