I'm very happy to have these guests here. We have Thomas Lohninger from EpicenterWorks and Chloe from ADRI, and they are talking about content takedowns. Who cleans the internet? The EU plans to swipe off our freedom of expression under the carpet, and I'm very happy to announce them, and that they're here. Give a big applause to Chloe and Thomas Lohninger. Thanks. Thank you. Thank you, and welcome to everybody. Yeah, let's get started. We're going to talk about content takedowns and content moderation, but why the debate? You can call platform regulation. The next 40 minutes will be about, in my prediction, I would say after doing digital rights for 10 years, probably the biggest digital rights debate that we'll have in the European Union. But before we get into that, we have to start with the basics. And the basic in this case is a weird complicated word called intermediary liability. What our intermediaries? You can think of that if you go back to dead trees, to classical media. If you publish a newspaper, you are liable for every article that somebody writes in there. So a publisher has to take responsibility for the content that they are putting in their paper. For classical media, that works. And media and liability law around these things has developed over decades and centuries for radio, for television, for all types of media. But that logic, of course, did not work if the internet came about. And there have been several cases in the EU in the 90s where the police thought an ISP is just like a newspaper. They have to be hold liable and responsible for the contents of their users on their service. And so several ISPs in France, actually not France, in Italy to the left, in Austria to the right, were raided and the servers were confiscated. Thousands of websites of companies were offline because the police thought, okay, we have to arrest the internet and it took all the servers away. There was even a famous case in Germany around CompuServe where the CEO of an ISP and host that was actually charged with criminal charges about pornography because one of their customers made content available that was illegal. But all of these cases, of course, created a huge uproar in Austria. The internet was even shut down for a day and then the EU reacted to that. As a result of this legal uncertainty, rules were adopted at European level and they were formalized into what now we call the e-commerce directive, which was adopted in 2000. And it gave basically internet companies legal protection against illegal activities that are taking place on their system. And the rationale at the time was that it was to ensure that there was a unified digital market that would develop and expand in Europe at a time where very few people had access to the internet and the digital global corporation that we know nowadays didn't exist. And one of the key provision of this directive, Article 14, says that company are not responsible for illegal content that their users are generating unless they obtain knowledge of it. In such cases, they have to act as quickly as possible to remove it and that was until now the European model. Yeah, and you can also think about intermediate liability as a sword in the shield. That analogy mostly holds true for the US and Europe it's a little bit more complicated but the basic principle still holds true. So intermediate liability protections, these safe harbors that Joe just explained in the e-commerce directive act as a shield. You are not liable, your users can do whatever they want and when a problem comes up, you have to deal with it of course, but you don't have to go through every eventuality of bad thing that could happen if you start a new service. So that shield was very influential and important for creating the diversity and innovative capacity that we have witnessed over the past decades in the open internet. But intermediate liability also gives companies a sword. They can moderate on their own. They can proactively moderate, they can moderate based on laws or terms of services and they can do that to their own choosing. In the US the debate right now is a little bit, if you don't use your sword more often then we'll go after your shield. Now we also want to give you a brief video that also summarizes that concept of intermediate liability by the most famous and most painful example that we had in Europe, the copyright directive that was the video recreated with Alexander Lehman for the pledge 2019 campaign. The open internet we all know and love where everyone can participate will soon no longer exist. EU politicians are about to pass a law which they say is supposed to combat unauthorized copy. In pursuit of that goal, they're about to make a fundamental change that would affect all of us. It all comes down to the main question, who is liable for files illegally uploaded on the internet? So far the person uploading illegal copies is also the one responsible and liable for the content. The app or website they do this on is innocent unless they're made aware of the copy and do nothing about it. It's like when a crime is planned over the phone that doesn't make the phone company responsible. Today's legislation makes sense. Nowadays, everyone can communicate and share with the whole world. It's simply impossible for websites to manually review each one of the billions of images, videos, texts, audio files, we post online. But that's exactly what the politicians want to change. In the future, as soon as something goes online, the site would be just as liable as the person who posted it. So what you may be thinking, why is that a problem? Because then the only way for websites to operate legally would be to verify every single post by every single user, assuring that it doesn't infringe any copyright worldwide. If they cannot guarantee that, it cannot go online. But it gets worse. This new law is not only demanding something technically impossible, it's also threatening one of our fundamental rights, namely freedom of expression without unjustified censorship. But no program can tell for sure whether a parody, commentary, or remix is legal or infringing on copyright. Making these decisions today takes lawyers, judges, and long trials. And yet websites will be expected to somehow make them automatically millions of times a day. To avoid massive fines, the platforms will have to filter extremely strictly and a lot of perfectly legal content will get caught up in these filters. But unfortunately, technical feasibility and censorship are not the only problems. Before this bill has even passed, the EU Commission has already presented an even further reaching law. This one would require filters for so-called extremist content, with each post having to be checked with law enforcement agencies. We're talking about nothing less than EU-wide internet censorship machines. What could possibly go wrong? If we don't act now, we could find the internet in Europe scrubbed clean of anything challenging, surprising, weird, or enlightening. The big winners of this new law would be multi-billion dollar companies like Google or Facebook, as their budgets would still allow them to implement the new guidelines. All smaller platforms would only be able to further offer their services if they use the filter systems provided by the big corporations. The smaller companies will have to trade in their data, which would make the big players even more powerful. All of us would be the losers of this new legislation because structures that make the internet so diverse today would die tomorrow as a result of this law. If you want to stop this dull and miserable filter net, you have to take action now. These websites tell you how. Call your representatives in the European Parliament today and tell them that you will only vote for them in the 2019 European elections if they vote against upload filters. Yeah, that vote, of course, we certainly lost by five votes, so five MPs. We could not convince and henceforth the copyright directive was adopted and is now on the way to be transposed by EU member states. The discussion doesn't stop there, but before we come to that, first to the... Just to kind of summarize again what just being said, like there is some problems now in the ecosystem, in the online ecosystem that makes certain people believe that the ancient rule, the rules from the e-commerce directive needs to be fixed. Why does that? Today's intermediaries are very different from the ones from the 90s, obviously. We now are witnessing what we call the platform economy, which is a centralization of the net around a few players. And most of what peoples do online today is mediated through intermediaries. And those intermediaries, those are few giant corporations that dominate the ecosystem and the reality is there is very few possibilities for credible challenges to enter this market. The second problem is there are many, many more people online today than it used to be. Everybody can post content 24-7 online and can possibly reach a global audience, even that for free. And this is quite overwhelming. I mean, this is how it translates into numbers. And this is how the online communications landscape looks like today. So million, even billions of users whose online activities are mediated by a few platforms and they post an enormous amount of content per day, which makes it impossible even for those powerful companies to control and assess each piece of content that is posted. And that's a big problem. These billion users subject the entire communication under monolithic speech regulation policies. And this is impossible for a single set of rules to encompass and to accommodate the diversity of cultural norms in the world. What's more, because those platforms not only host content, but they actually curate it, they push it, they delist it, demote it, they decide for their entire user base which voice gets heard, which viewpoints gets visibility, and which does not. And because most of our communication, their content regulation rules, so-called community guidelines, become some sort of constitutions that actually regulate a quarter of the world's population speech. That's a huge problem. And they start behaving like they were actually the ones making the law. Recently, Facebook created an oversight board which is supposed to kind of make decision on content moderation cases. And in this way, they are acting more or less like a Supreme Court that decides and interpret Facebook terms and services. Yeah, and on that point, it is important to understand, there's really a core concept here. The laws that we are accustomed to, which regulate which speech is acceptable or not. They are always contagious. I mean, the case law of Europe's highest courts even says fundamental rights protection, fundamental speech protections are particularly for challenging speech, for still legal, but, you know, like these very hateful statements, even statements that are creating an uproar that might even spark a demonstration. These are exactly the edge cases that we need to protect with freedom of expression. Yet, most of the content moderation decisions that happen today are not even based on law. It's right to assume that around 80, 90% of the content moderation decisions are actually about the terms of services of every platform. And those are not laws. Fundamental rights protections do not apply to these texts that companies have written themselves and probably change every week. And that's so important because that also changes the dynamic of any legislation that comes further down the road. But there is an ample amount of cases where platforms have acted really irresponsible. TikTok, the Chinese social network for short videos that's particularly popular in the younger generation. The Guardian and adspolitic.org recently leaked the content moderation guidelines for the humans that are moderating the content on TikTok. And what they found is that this platform intentionally curbs the reach of people with disabilities, with autism or Down syndrome or people that are not fit that have a normal, regular or fat body size. All of these people are curbed in their reach so their posts and their videos are actually never reaching a critical audience. And what platforms actually rely on automated tools, on filters to the content moderation, it doesn't get better.  And that's because the technology is unable to understand the nuance in every language. And that's the case of Twitter here. Before going, presenting to you what's coming up at European level, let's have a quick look at what happened in the past years because both the EU and its member states have started to lead a true crusade to clean the internet. They were adopting very quickly legislation to tackle all sorts of problematic content. Yeah, and of course Copyright Directive is first and foremost there. We really wanted to win this fight, not just because of article 11 and 13, now 15 and 17, so upload filters and until we copyright for news publishers, but also because we knew that in the upcoming fight around digital service act about the intermediate liability debate, it would be a bad start if the Copyright Directive went down as it did. The other file that was mentioned in the video is the regulation on terrorist content online that's still up for grabs and will probably be adopted next year. The Audiovisual Media Service Directive is a particularly nasty piece of legislation because it is a law that doesn't say companies should do X, Y, Z. It is a law that say companies should have terms of services that do X, Y, Z. So it is kind of outsourcing or privatizing things like the moral development of young people. And then we also have two pieces of software, the code of practice of disinformation and the code of conduct on a legal hate speech. There are not even legislative acts.   And actually members of it have not been resting on their laurels either. They've been very prolific. And the first one to adopt as its own anti-hate speech law was Germany. And it was actually copy pasted by a lot of its European counterparts. And all those law are currently under debate in their national parliaments and governments. But basically there is copycats law in France, UK is talking about it, Ireland and also Croatia. One of the common denominator of those laws is that they are shifting the responsibilities to decide what to block or not online onto the shoulders of companies. And that's very convenient for European governments to do that because companies do not have to respect human rights law like the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights. Contrary to the very same governments who have to abide by these laws. A very, very convenient way for them to shrug off the difficult task to balance fundamental rights at stake. What is actually the playbook of these laws? So again, they are pushing content takedowns to be based on terms and condition. So contractual rules rather than the state law. So that's a very big problem for the principle of the law. And then for some of those laws it goes even beyond actual legal content under the law. It also covers harmful content.  What else? They also incentivize companies to act very quickly to make the decision on the content. And for that, it leads company to obviously use if they can, automated means, so-called upload filters to the job very fast. And how do they incentivize companies with high fines?  Yeah, again, summarize that nicely. Platforms are put in a really difficult position with a strong incentive of overblocking. Some piece of content is notified to a platform they could either just delete it and be done with it or start a quite complicated, expensive legal assessment. Is this within the rules or not? And if they decide it wrong, then they could face the risk of penalties or even liability for that content. And hence, you have a strong incentive for overblocking and is not really a level assessment that what they do. But to increase complexity further, it is not just about content moderation. So this whole debate about platform regulation will also include e-commerce. So there's a famous case when L'Oreal counterfeit products were sold on eBay, L'Oreal sued, ultimately lost. That case was in 2010. And the European High Court went with us, went with Intermediary Liability protections back then. But as you have seen with the years of the previous dossiers, both on the member level as well as on the EUA level, it is actually more or less difficult for us now to hold that line. The CEGU, the European High Court recently decided in 2017 that yes, Uber is a taxi company and does not benefit from the protections of liability. In the US, we had CESTA, the Stop Enabling Sex Trafficking Act, which was allotted, was adopted bipartisanly in the middle of the Trump administration in 2018. Both Democrats and Republicans could agree on that law. And it again, removed liability protections for hostess. Tumblr deleted around 17 million sex-positive or sex-educational blogs because of that. Because they could not bear the cost that was not willing to actually go through that content on their platform. So they just massively deleted millions of blogs with a lot of content. And that is a kind of sign which internet we could end up with if suddenly every platform has to take responsibility before stuff even appears online. And this is not just a Western debate, also in India. The regulators are looking at that. TRY launched a consultation and they are also proposing new rules on Intermediary Liability. And that whole debate is global in nature. It's important to understand that every rule that we make here will have repercussions in the rest of the world. Net-STG, the German Law and Content Moderation, was copied by 17 countries already. The first of which was Russia. When we call for Facebook to respect the decisions of a court, people in Azerbaijan here, okay, that same court that blocks a hundred opposition websites every month now should also decide about my Facebook posts. So it is quite complicated to get it right here. But yet I believe that Europe has the best cards to come up with a fundamental rights-based solution to this intricate problem. Now about this reform. Yeah, what is coming up? Since 2000, it was quite silent around the e-commerce directive. But in the last decade, there are a lot of movement. Thomas already explained to you there were several case law, but there were also several calls at European level to reopen the text or to complement it with another more specific piece of legislation. But nothing really concrete came out of it. But now with the new commission in place since 1st December this year, and with its new president, it is quite confirmed that the review of the old e-commerce directive will happen, and it will take the name of the Digital Services Act. And to be honest, what will this future legislation say or contain? We don't know exactly yet, but there are several ideas on the table. Among them, there is a possibility that the reform look at the current definition of what is an intermediary, what do we call an intermediary and how we categorize them. Trying to update the old definition, trying to take into account the new internet companies that emerged in the 2010s, like Airbnb, for example. It will look at one of another core principle of the e-commerce directive, Article 15, which prohibits member states to put an obligation on platforms to monitor all their content to look actively for illegality. And this is a big question mark for us because will this principle be upheld or not? That's a big question because the copyright directive already kind of start going against that very principle. And then it will also look at some obligations for platforms or for intermediaries in terms of how they regulate their content, their practices, and how they do content moderation on their services. Another thing, which is actually very welcome from our side. This whole list here is based on a leak from the commission on the working level. We actually have good people, they are working on that file. They have been doing that for over a decade and they have a really good understanding of the issue. The question is how the political side will deal with these good ideas that are being discussed. But yeah, rules on online advertisement are good because we have to talk about the business model. Most of these problems are symptoms of the strong concentration in the market and a few very dominant platforms that we have in the internet today. And so actually tackling the attention economy and the attention merchant, as Tim Wu put it, is the right thing to do also because the full scope of this phenomenon called targeted online advertisement, I would say has not been completely understood and we need more science and for that we need more data. And another thing, which is actually really hopeful, I think for the people in the room here, is interoperability. Yesterday, Moxie Marlin spiked a talk where he basically bashed the idea of decentralization. What he is missing is really that it's not about decentralization in the 90 cents, it's about interoperability. It's about making dominant platforms open again, forcing WhatsApp to establish a protocol where competing messaging services like SignalFEMA can communicate with people on these other networks so that competition can happen even in an economy that is strongly based on the network effect. And interoperability is not a Swiss knife that can solve all problems, but if it is applied in a case-by-case way to also solve the privacy and security problems that come with it, I think it would be really a visionary thing for a European internet that is decentral and open and not concentrated between China and the US. Another thing that of course many people in government want to see is accessibility of data. Many local governments and cities have problems with taxation from Airbnb, for example, and they're refusing to cooperate to allow for these types of taxation, forcing them to hand over this data, I think in general is something to look at. And lastly, all of these rules will most likely be informed by a new entity, by a platform regulator on the European level. Again, that's still up for debate. People want to see media regulators to more or telecom regulators, but I would think that we'll see a new regulator for these tasks in the EU in the near future. And that is why the digital service sector, DSA, is often dubbed the constitution of the internet. And that is actually a quote from somebody in the commission working on that file. And to compliment the picture, why is this important? Let's look at the more mechanical thing like the lobby side, what Chloe and I are working on on a daily basis. The stakeholders that will be part to that debate is of course all of the US internet giants in Silicon Valley. It will be a whole of the European internet industry. Every telco, hoster, content delivery network provider ever. So basically all of the actors of the general data protection regulation will be on the table with a stark business interest on that file. But that's not over. You have also a big opportunity for a big copyright battle revival with all the classical actors in this debate. Like the classical media, think about newspapers, broadcasters, publisher, a.k.a. the return of Axel Springer. Then you will have the entertainment industry, which is representing more or less all the rights holders from the music, cinema, et cetera, and represented actually by an army of lobbyists. And then obviously the, what? What, yeah, there you are, and more, but anyway. I got it. And then obviously the providers of upload filters like Audible Magic, Facebook, Google, who have a really big financial interest in this dossier. And it doesn't stop there. So Brigham Motors does, taxi drivers, hotel owners. So everybody who is attacked or affected with the sharing economy over the gig economy, they of course will have a say. And particularly in national debates, those are strong lobby organizations. Then it's us. It's a digital rights community. And I think we have to be essential in this debate because in a way it is about the soul of the internet or that question about interoperability and liability could easily change the landscape of the internet that we have today. So I think that's why we should care. Then of course human rights, Amnesty International is waking up the digital rights. Those actors have a different mindset, but I think we have to see them as allies. And lastly, also every type of marginalized group, every anti-racism organization, feminist organization. We heard about people with disabilities. So all of the things where we as society currently disagree if this should be shown or somebody should be allowed to say that, mix in a big bucket, steer it, and then you global private profit-oriented company, please solve that for us. So if you aggregate all those stakeholders, I would dub it not the constitution of the internet, but definitely the matter of all digital rights debates. Just because the interests are so big and that's why we will definitely not have an easy time with that. Okay, what's next? When should you be ready to act more or less? This is all super blurry, but rumors hold that the first public consultation will be launched early next year in 2020 to which all of you can participate gladly. We would be very glad about that. The proposal of the commission to the first draft will be released probably at the end of 2020 by the commission. Then serious business begins when the text reached the two co-legislators, the Council of Member States and the Parliament, which to be fair, are gonna take probably more years to find their own positions on the text, their own version of the text. And so we expect the negotiation between all the parties after in 2022 and probably the adoption in some years later. To summarize, so the 90s have shown us that we needed to adopt the rules because the internet is not paper printed on that trees. Then for a decade it was mostly silent. For the last decade, we had to fight off attempts to open up this law and now it's gonna happen. So we have to deal with the reality and the good lesson to learn is that in European legislative processes, the earlier you come to the table, the more effective you are. The same letter that you could send one day before the final vote will mean nothing, but if you send it months before the dossier is actually released or the consultation has launched, you can really bring ideas to the table that will end up in the law. That's what we have done is epicenter works with platformregulation.du, which is an attempt to actually solve that problem in the form of a request for comments. It's an RFC-based website and you can please comment on that and will of course continuously increase these ideas and hopefully we'll see some of them later than in the law and the legislation that will be released. Then lastly, epicenter works is a donation-funded organization. We have very strict rules on our fundraising and the work we do, which is a public watchdog, is also not welcomed by many people because we can't be bought. We actually always try to speak truth to power and that means we are even more dependent on the support of many individuals and a diverse group of supporting members is actually what makes this work possible. And you can become one if you go to support.epicenter.works. My time for advertisement. Follow our work. If you want to be updated on this file, if you want to take part in many, many battles at European level that concerns all of you, you follow our work. You follow the best newsletter in Europe at edry.org slash newsletters and also the one from epicenterworks and follow us on the live, unfortunately, Twitter channels that we have. Thank you. Time for questions. Thank you so much. Thank you so much. That's good. Again, the contact details are here and we have questions from the internet and we have questions here in room clock. And I would like to start with number two, please. Thank you. So when lobbying against some of the things that we will be lobbying against in the coming years, one thing I hear is that right of speech is a human right, but right of reach never has been. So how do I, how do you react to that? How do I best react to that? Sorry, could you repeat the question? Yes, yes. So what people say is that right of speech is obviously a human right, but the right of reach that is using the platforms is not. Yeah. Do you want to answer to that? Yeah, I mean, it's actually touching on the complicated thing because it's actually a very simplistic view to just think that it's about content just being published or being taken down or deleted. In many cases, it is about algorithmic creation, what actually ends up in the newsfeed. It is also about which content gets monetized, when gets a user suspended. If content gets deleted, does it also get notified to the authorities? But often that content is also evidence for a crime. If we speak about the stuff witness.org is working on in Syria or the documentation of child abuses, all of these things actually deletion could not be the most viable step to take. And we wanted to talk about that, but because of time, we didn't go into the detail, but the policy proposals are all tackling that. And when it comes to the question of responsibility and algorithms, there will be a separate dossier that we don't know much about. There are almost AI regulation, which also might be mixed together with the DSA, come in conjunction. We don't know it yet because those decisions haven't been taken yet, but you surely will see these questions also being addressed in the ongoing legislative term after you. Thank you. Okay, we're gone with another question from the internet, please signal Angel. Hello. So, one of the questions from the internet is, does the law require Facebook and Google to snoop data that is not presented to the public? To snoop data in the sense of monitoring it? Monitor, yes. It's actually a good question. I mean, if we talk about a private WhatsApp group or a private Facebook group, it all depends on the national legislation if they're, I don't know, it from Austria. If you have more than a certain number of people in that group, you have a public forum. And, for example, if you would deny the Holocaust in such a closed WhatsApp or Facebook group, that would still be an illegal fence. But then the question is, where's the judge? So, like, if that gets notified to the platform, they should take action. And for a Facebook group, Facebook could do that and would probably also do it if they would do their job. On an end-to-end encrypted WhatsApp channel, they simply cannot, technically, if they are not parted to that communication. I hope that answers the question. Okay, thank you. We have another question at microphone one, please. Hello. I'm from the United States. I run a non-profit transit internet service provider by running about 6% of Tor network exit capacity. So I facilitate quite a bit of onion circuits which are decentralized and encrypted so we can't see what's in them. How does this affect me? And how can I get involved? And can I get involved? Mere conduit. Yeah. I think where you would fall, actually, nowadays, would be the definition of mere conduit intermediaries which have less responsibilities than hosting providers. And because you're just providing the network, like not really hosting it on your own servers, if I understand correctly. The rules that I mentioned with the knowledge and the responsibility and the liability exemption doesn't even imply to you. You're more protected than you either. As for the digital services act, what's gonna be coming up? I'm not sure. But I don't think there is an intent to actually modify the rules that apply to mere conduit. It's more for the hosting providers, like the big ones, the forums, the blogs, and so on. Yeah. Okay, thank you. Microphone 2, please. So given how with this question, for example, we see how where the responsibility falls is also a bit part of the negotiation as well. So you have given an interpretation now of how this law affects the current way that publishing works on the internet. But don't you think that this change can also incentivize innovation in the way that we do publishing on the internet and maybe incentivize more decentralized approaches to publishing merely in order to escape responsibility?  Everybody has to have their own website again. But where would the discussion then happen? Like in the RSS feeds that we all have on our disabilities, even something like mastodon would be directly in scope of legislation like this. So every type of aggregation, every type of newsfeed, every type of interaction even would fall within the scope of that law. And that's why interoperability, I think, is a nice synthesis of this central versus decentral debate. Absolutely. Okay, thank you. I'm very sorry, I see we have more questions, but unfortunately time is up. Please give another applause for Chloe and Thomas Donemann. Thank you so much.


Hey, this is Brett and this 2017 Chevy Silverado 2500 Crew Cab Short Box Duramax diesel is stock number 12762Z. We are here at Summit Automotive in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, your new and used heavy duty truck headquarters. This 2017 Chevy Silverado 2500 has the 6.6 liter Duramax diesel. This is the L5P engine which puts out 445 horsepower. This truck has been fully safety and inspected by our service shop per the state of Wisconsin inspection process. It has a fresh oil and filter change. All the fluids have been checked and tapped off and this truck is 100% ready to go. We're going to go all the way around inside underneath, start it up, and take a look under the hood in this video. White is the color and we shoot all of our videos in 4K, so if you have HD capabilities on your computer, tablet, smartphone, or television, I highly recommend turning them on right now because it is your best way to check out the quality, condition, options, and cleanliness of the vehicle before seeing it in person. If you like the video and how we do things here at Summit Automotive in the lower right hand part of the screen is a subscribe button to our YouTube channel. Click that and then click the bell notifications and you'll get updates on the videos we do each and every day here at Summit Automotive. This one comes with some really big 22-inch TIS off-road painted and polished aluminum rims. They are in very nice shape and it has Nitto Ridge Grappler tires. These are 37x12.5-hour 22LTs and they have I'd say probably 60% of the tread left on them. This one does have a rough country suspension lift kit. It has fox shocks with the reservoirs and the frame and underbody is in very nice clean condition. I'll give you a good look at that lift on there. Looks pretty good. Comes with an aftermarket front bumper. Front fender is in great shape by the way. No dents or dings on there and the front bumper is in nice condition. This is a bodyguard heavy duty front bumper. Has aftermarket LED fog lamps. Has a couple aftermarket LED light bars on there as well. Front bumper parking sensors. You get the projector style headlamps and the Z71 grille on there, chrome trim. The true cowl induction fully functional hood. I'll show you how that works in just a little bit. The hood is absolutely perfect. I didn't see any dents or dings in there. As you come around to the passenger side front fender, no dents or dings on that. The fender flare is in very nice condition as well. Passenger side rim, no scuffs, no scrapes on there. As you go down this side of the truck, take note of how clean the body is, how reflective and mirror-like that paint is. We take these HD videos so if you are far away or even if you're close by, you just cannot make the trip down. But you're still interested in purchasing the vehicle. You can see the truck, hear the truck, and have confidence in the vehicle that you're looking at before you even get here. So when you do get here, there's absolutely no surprises and you can make a smart and informed buying decision from wherever you're at. And if this video helps you make that decision and let your salesman know that you saw the video, that it was helpful and that Brett sent you. Back rim is in nice shape as well. Back tires have just about as much tread as the front tires and the frame and underbody is very clean all the way underneath. Get the fox shocks back here as well. The cool part about this truck is it has all the remaining factory exhaust so it hasn't been altered from an emission standpoint in any way. And it does have some really nice amp research power steps. Get that part of that rough country lift there. Pastner side box looks really good. And coming around to the back, rear bumper is in pretty nice shape. It does have the backup parking sensors, rear bumper steps, full towing package which includes a receiver hitch, four pin and seven pin wiring. And the tailgate is in very nice condition as well. It does have a locking tailgate, backup camera and comes with a hard fold up tonneau cover. It's probably an under cover, I think the logo has peeled off there. Spray and bed liner. And I believe that is a, yeah that piece is the same piece that's hanging down over there. That's for the tonneau cover, kind of a stopper I believe. Spray and bed liner. Does have LED bed lighting up there and the bed is in very nice condition as well. Tailgate shuts nice and solidly and as you go down the driver's side just as clean as that passenger's side. No major dents or dings in the box. And for full disclosure, this back rim is in very nice condition too. Down the rest of the side of the truck, doors look really good. It does come with the telescopic tomers, they have built in directional signals, LED side lights. They do telescope out like so and fold in. Inside the LT package or LTZ package I should say, gives you the black leather interior. No rips or tears on those seats, they're in very nice condition, both these front seats are heated and cooled. Weather tech floor mats. This is how you turn on those LED light bars. Auto headlamps turned off four wheel drive and factory brake controller, power windows, power locks, power mirrors and these mirrors do power fold in. I always like showing both sides so that you know that both sides are working properly. It also has the Bose sound system. You can see those power step bars, my amp research are doing a nice job. We'll hop inside, check out the miles, radio and everything that this truck has to offer on the interior. You can see that this one has 47,644 miles, you do get a digital speedometer. The Z71 instrument cluster and that instrument cluster is very nice and clean. Comes with the heated leather wrap steering wheel. Very nice condition, Bluetooth and information center controls on the right, cruise controls and heated steering wheel controls on the left. This one does come with the six speed Allison automatic heavy duty transmission with the optional tap shift and it does have the Chevy MyLink radio with the factory navigation system and FM and Sirius XM radio capabilities. This is also where your backup camera shows up.  For your cargo lamps, it's also how you turn on your LED side lights and your LED bed lighting and your downhill assist control parking sensors and factory exhaust break. Does come with two USBs, two 12 volt power points and a 110 volt, 150 watt plug-in, passenger side format and seat are in fantastic condition. No rips or tears on there and the headliner is very clean as well. You do get the power sunroof, side curtain airbags, up here you get your map lights, home link buttons for your garage door security systems and lane systems and power sliding rear window with the built-in rear defrost. On-star and SOS buttons in the rear view mirror and this one does have the wireless cell phone charge pad right there. We'll take a quick look at the back seats and then we'll check, start it up and take a look under the hood. Back seats are just as clean as the front seats, no rips, no tears back here. Does have the latch child safety system for any child car seats you may have. Power sliding rear window with the built-in rear defrost. Seats are in really nice shape. These fold up for extra storage. You get the weather tech floor mats back here which keeps your carpeting looking like new and get that Z71 trim on the doors and the bottoms of the doors all look very good on this truck. We'll start it up and take a look under the hood. No check engine lights or anything like that. I'll turn on all the lights here so that you can see all those LED lights. Also you can see the LED side lights on the mirrors. They are extremely bright. I would personally like to thank you for checking out the video today and hopefully from this HD video. You've been able to tell just how clean this truck is all the way around inside. No, you get a really good idea of the overall condition and quality. I will say that there are a couple little lights out on the top light bar there for full disclosure. Under the hood we have the 6.6 liter Duramax diesel engine. L5P, 445 horsepower engine bay is very clean, runs very smooth and once again this truck has been fully safe and inspected by a service shop as a fresh oil and filter change. All the fluids have been checked and topped off and this truck is 100% ready to go. So cold air comes in there, comes right down here into the air box. There's your emissions sticker and I would highly recommend this 2017 Chevy Silverado 2500 crew cab, short box, Duramax diesel LTZ from a quality and condition standpoint.

What is up everybody, welcome back to the channel. You guys, in this video, I'm gonna be simply answering a question from my buddy here, Eric. Shout to Eric, thank you for commenting on this video right here. He had some really good questions, you guys, regarding softwares. He has a really good strategy when it comes to making income and building an affiliate business, but what I wanted to do, and what I love to do on this channel, is just share my two cents. Share my advice and just kind of bring value any way I can. I've been building businesses for a very long time, offline, and then now online since 2016, started as an agency going after clients and doing social media marketing and Facebook advertising services, and then going into affiliate marketing, and now digital courses, which is where I'm really, really fired up about and where I'm headed next. Just packaging up all my knowledge and scaling that and selling that to many, many more people. But what I like to touch on on this channel, you guys, is all this stuff before the beginner. That's where I found Mynich. Mynich is simply helping the beginner. Like what can that beginner do? That beginner affiliate marketer, that beginner agency owner, someone who's looking to go out there and start servicing clients when it comes to social media marketing or any type of paid traffic type of service or small business owners.  The small business owner, what I like to do with all of you guys is simply teach and help you scale online. Like what does it take to get our business online? What does it take to service clients online? And a lot of the times online now is social media. So when it comes to my buddy Eric here, he has a few different things that he's asking here. One is regarding services and different software. And then another one is regarding Amazon, right? Starting off as a beginner affiliate with Amazon. And I'm gonna touch on both of these, okay? So I just thought I'd bring some value. I thought I'd share it with all of you guys. And again, give you my advice and the direction that I would go, if I was just starting out again. So this first question he's asking and again, this is a beginner, right? Shout out to Eric. Thank you so much for commenting, Eric. I appreciate your question for sure. This is a beginner, right? This is a beginner that's looking to get onto online and looking to build something online, drive traffic online, make sales online. What's it gonna take, right? So he first started off by asking this question right here. Excellent video and advice, David. I'd love the insight on grabbing copy from Amazon instead of always trying to reinvent the wheel. So yeah, perfect. So in this video right here, I'm just simply showing people how to post their Amazon affiliate link on Facebook and use some of the copy, which is the text that is already on that Amazon product and use it to your advantage. Use it in your post as you go and post it on Facebook, right? So shout out to Eric. Thanks for appreciating this video. But then he also asked, how do you think Kartra compares to other list building services like MailChimp, Aweber and Constant Contact? See, so this is what I talk about on my channel a lot, you guys, is Kartra, first of all. Kartra is the one online software that builds my entire online business, okay? The one software. And so that's the problem when you start going after all these other softwares is the fact that now you need all these other softwares to do the same damn thing.  It comes down to running ads, right? Either you're either running ads or you're building a personal brand. You're an influencer, right? You're building a personal brand. You know, shout out to my son Christian. He has a cousin who was an influencer. He's building a brand on TikTok, right? Posting every day, getting hundreds of thousands of people to follow him. That's one way. So you're either going to be on these platforms posting all damn day, getting people to like your video, getting people to see your latest dance, getting people to follow you and you're doing that every day and you're building up some type of audience.  You're either doing that and you're putting in the time to create the audience or you're going straight to Facebook advertising or straight to YouTube advertising. All these videos that you see running on YouTube, these are advertisements. So you're either going to build a personal brand or you're going to run advertisements. Either one, either one, no matter what you're doing, it's now going to come down to driving that click. So as someone sees your TikTok video and they click on the link in your bio or as someone sees your Instagram post and they click on the link in the bio, the million dollar question is where are you taking them? Okay, where are you taking them? What's your brand? What are you building? What are you pitching? What are you sharing? Where are you taking them, right? So that's when all these other tools are going to come into play. Like we're going to need all these other tools. And so since 2018, I've been talking about Cartra and the benefit of having everything in one. Because going this way, Eric, first of all, all these softwares, we've got three different softwares he's referring to right here, right? MailChimp, Aweber and Constant Contact. All three of these are email providers. They're email clients, they're email accounts, they are email auto responders.  As people click, they're going to a page to enter their name and email. So hopefully you're driving them to some type of landing page, right? Or some type of an affiliate offer, which we're going to get there because Eric, that's where he's striving for is affiliate marketing. So we're going to get to his next question. But let's start here real quick because again, this is all for the beginner. If I was beginning again, if I was giving advice to the beginner, this is what it is. So as you take that click, again, whether it's paid traffic or whether it's you building your personal brand, as you take that click somewhere, that somewhere is a landing page. Most likely it's a landing page. You don't want to drive that click straight to an offer. So Eric is bringing up Amazon Associates, Amazon Affiliates, we're going to get to that. You don't want to take that click straight to an Amazon offer or you're on click bank or you're on any of these other platforms. You don't want to take them straight to an offer. You want to take them straight to a page so where you can capture that lead. You need to capture that lead. Those who are winning have the biggest leads. Like they have the biggest list. Like they have leads up the ying-ing, right? They have tons of leads because they're driving tons of traffic because they're a huge influencer like my son's cousin, hundreds of thousands of followers. You're driving that attention somewhere, right? To capture the lead. It's all about capturing the lead. And that's why, again, with my son's cousin, now he's getting brand deals. Now he's getting different brand deals, right? Different companies are reaching out to him to do brand deals. Guess what? That company is directing that attention to a link. So if he's on a video, TikTok, wearing freaking this nice jacket or wearing this nice hat or wearing these nice glasses and the brand is paying him to do that. And then he sends a shout out about the brand. He's directing that attention somewhere and that attention is gonna be a link. That attention is going to be a webpage. So when it comes to that, that's what's necessary first is that webpage, right? But after I capture that lead, what happens next? That's what these softwares are all about. MailChimp, Aweber, Constant Contact. Now, we're already coming across an issue. Now I have two different softwares that I'm gonna need. I'm gonna need one for the landing page to capture the lead. And then I'm gonna need one of these three softwares to manage the lead, right? Because that lead, as it comes in, I need to be able to nurture that lead. I need to be able to communicate with that lead. I need to be able to stay top of mind with that lead. That's what these softwares are all about. MailChimp, Aweber, Constant Contact. They're email auto responders. So already you're now dealing with two different types of softwares. You got one for your landing pages and then you got one for your email auto responder, okay?  Then you'll need some type of online calendar.  Now you're dealing with a third software, okay? So you can only be on the free plan for so long. Even with MailChimp, you can only be on the free plan for so long and then you got to upgrade.  And so as a beginner, it makes absolutely no sense to try to manage all these different softwares when you can do all inside of one, which is Cartra. Like Cartra is the one software that I've been talking about on my YouTube channel. That's what I built my entire YouTube channel around is this Cartra software, talking about the power of this, my landing pages, my sales funnels, my email auto responder, the ability to sell my digital products, whether it's a membership course, whether it's a coaching program, whether it's a membership service, whether it's a digital ebook, all these different services that I can provide digitally, I can sell here in my products. Again, my email auto responder, my pages are all my pages and landing pages, my membership course. So if you are trying to package your knowledge, if you're trying to scale a digital course and sell information, right? I talk about this to my son all the time. There's some people that put all their videos on YouTube and then there's some people that take a handful of videos, package it all up and sell it, right? That's what I'm doing.  That's my digital course. And so that's right here in my memberships. So if it wasn't Cartra, I'd have to go and get another software just for the digital courses, just for the ability to put videos in there and package it all up and sell it. That's another software. So, and then there's my calendar and then I do all my affiliate marketing through Cartra as well. So rather than having one software for my landing pages, you know, ClickFunnels, for example, and then another software for my email auto responder, which would be MailChimp, Aweber or Constant Contact. Rather than having all that and then rather than having a third software for my calendar, because I am a consultant, I do, you know, schedule appointments every damn day with clients. So I need some type of online calendar system. If it wasn't for Cartra, I'd have to go get a third software just to manage my appointments. And that's not free. Again, I could be on schedule once, only for the beginning. And then after I start to get, you know, scale up, I got to pay for it. And then, and then also my membership. So me, again, I'm scaling my knowledge. I'd have to go get a fourth software and each software is about a hundred bucks. I mean, first of all, these email providers that he's referring to over here, these are not cheap. These are anywhere from 25 and up, 50 bucks, 60 bucks a month. And then if you're on ClickFunnels, which a lot of people are using ClickFunnels, you're now doing landing pages at $97 a month. And then if you're building a membership course, you're probably on Kajabi or Teachable or something like that. And that's another hundred bucks a month. And then again, if you're using a separate calendar system, you're spending anywhere from 20 to 25 bucks and up per month. So it's like, dude, Eric, for the beginner, bro, for the beginner, you need Cartra. Like that's the reason why, like I sent you a 14 day trial and then he says over here, I'll take a rain check. It's like, bro, what do you mean take a rain check? Like you're not gonna find all those services for $99 a month for all of them anywhere. Like Cartra is the only system. That's why I've been preaching it over here for the past, you know, a couple of years. Is because there's no software like that. And so if you're trying, and it's not just a beginner as well. If you're anyone, let's say you've been in business forever and now you're over here online trying to build your business. You're trying to build your brand.  You're trying to get online and really build an audience. All this stuff applies, man. You're gonna need all these tools to drive this traffic. It's all about driving traffic, man. It's all about attention. It's all about attention. That's why again, my son, he's watching these YouTube videos. He's following YouTubers that are at millions of subscribers. It's like, dude, you gotta reverse engineer it. You gotta look at it. You gotta analyze it.  Millions of subscribers. Where's the attention? What are they talking about in the video? What links are in the description? These links are taking me somewhere. Where are they taking me? Right, that's what this is all about. It's all about driving that attention, driving that traffic and selling and monetizing your brand. Because a person that has three million subscribers or a person that has 600,000 followers on TikTok, what does it matter if they're not making money from that? If they're not monetizing it? That's what it's all about. It's not about having 600,000 followers on TikTok just to have 600,000 followers on TikTok. Hell no. If you have that and you're not making money from that, you're freaking retarded.  But that's not the case. These people are smart. We're smart nowadays, right? People are monetizing their brand. They're monetizing their followers. And all I'm saying is it all comes down to the click. When I look at their description or when I watch their video, what are they talking about and where are they directing me, right? And so whether you're an advanced business owner or someone just starting out or trying to do something on social media, it doesn't matter. It all comes down to the click and where you're taking them. And all I'm saying is that cartridge is that one stop software. So all I offered over here, Eric, I said, man, there's no comparison. Cartra is an all-in-one software. It's the one software that runs my entire online business and it's only $99 a month. I said set up a 14-day trial and compare it. That's all you can do, man.  That's all I tell people, man. I say, dude, forget about what I'm saying. Activate a 14-day trial and go compare it to the other seven softwares you're trying to use to build an online business. It's like, dude, it's night and day. It doesn't even compare. And then I also said, I'll give you all my time for free to help you get off to a fast start. It's like, dude, come on, right? And then Eric, he replies, I'll take a rain check. I like to see how well Amazon Associates work out. I'm laid off at home and we finally drained our savings. I'm hoping an affiliate-type side hustle will help me start building that savings back up. Okay, so this is where we're gonna go next, you guys. Again, the beginner, shout out to Eric. Millions of people have lost their job. I'm talking to my son about this every single day. What has happened in 2020 is an absolute nightmare and it's a freaking joke all at the same time. We are being played and it's not even funny, right? Millions of people have lost their job. It sounds like Eric is one of them, okay? Now, what I'm sharing here is again, for that person that may be in this position and either start now or on their last dollar or whatever, that's why Cartra has to be the software because you're not gonna afford multiple softwares, bro. Nor are you gonna want to. Like, you're not gonna wanna pay for all these different softwares and then have to integrate all these different softwares and have all these different softwares talk to each other. I got ClickFunnels for the landing page, but when they opt in, they go to my Aweber. It's like, dude, that's too much going on. Like all in one, bro, all in one. Cartra is all in one, okay? At that low price. But again, if you're starting out or if you're on your last dime, that's for sure the software you need. That's gonna be the most affordable and that's what I talk about on this channel. That's what I've been on for the past couple of years. Now, if I was in this position right here on my last dime, right? Amazon Associates is not where I start out, bro. That's not where you start out at all at all, especially if you don't have a huge email list, especially if you're not building an online brand. So if you're not like my son's cousin and have hundreds of thousands of followers on a TikTok account, if you're not like that, Amazon Associates is the last place you start. So if you don't have a huge following, if you don't have a huge email list, if you're not building a YouTube channel where you're talking about one niche. So let's say, Eric, your whole niche is home and garden, or let's say it's health and wellness, or let's say it's yoga, or let's say it's meditation, or let's say it's freaking baking, let's say it's cooking, it don't matter what your niche is. That's tip number one though, or actually shit, what am I on, tip number 19 probably. Whatever tip I'm on right now, the tip is pick one niche.  Like don't do that, like don't do that. And then don't start taking that link and posting it all over social media. Like in this video right here, I'm actually showing how to post it on Facebook, but I'm also saying no, dude, you can't just do that. Like don't just start a Facebook account and think you're gonna post your Amazon Associates link everywhere and people are gonna buy. Like yeah, right, like that's not gonna happen. It's not gonna happen at all.  The commissions are super low and you're not paid out until a month later and you're not paid out unless your commissions reach $100. So it's like most of the products on Amazon that you could possibly be selling pay you anywhere, anywhere from four to 8%, okay?   If you have no email list, if you have no social media brand, if you don't have hundreds of thousands of followers, right? It's gonna take you forever. If you're not building a YouTube channel, so now you have credibility, right? A lot of you guys that are following me on YouTube, what is this? It's credibility. Like you're seeing me drop a video every freaking day. I'm like Drake over here, right? I'm dropping a hit song every freaking day, right? Every day I'm out working all you guys, right?  That's building credibility. That's building my audience. That's building authority. That's building social proof.  He has freaking hundreds of videos on YouTube. He's talking about the same damn thing.  If you don't got that, bro, like that's not where you start, right? Amazon Associates, that's not where you start. Because another thing, if you look at any top Amazon affiliate, okay? And you could find them on YouTube, man. You can find them all on YouTube. Everyone's on YouTube. If you look at any of the, go look at camera channels. Go look at headphone channels. People that are doing reviews where their channel is based on a review. Okay guys, today I'm gonna be reviewing this new Freakins iPhone 97. Let me tell you about this iPhone, right? When you come across channels like that, those are huge, huge channels.  Dude, those are huge, huge channels that have huge followings that have Amazon links in the description, right? Those right there are the people who win. Like you have to be building that type of brand. So let's say, Eric, you don't have none of that, bro. Amazon Associates is not where you start. And let's say also that you don't have any of that. You don't have a huge following. You don't have a YouTube channel. You don't have a huge email list. You don't have any of that. So what you're gonna wanna do for sure is, well, first of all, you're gonna wanna start a YouTube channel, man.  That's why when it comes to affiliate marketing, don't just look for high-paying products.  Start a YouTube channel. That's where I would start, Eric. Start a freaking YouTube channel and start talking about that niche. Start talking about products in that industry. Start talking about why you're so fired up about that industry. Start talking about your experience in that industry. Start building a following of like-minded people, okay? That's what you have to start. You should have started that yesterday, right? That's where you start, bro. Because again, it's the credibility that's gonna hit you in the end. You can't just post links everywhere, bro.  I'm sorry. And again, with Amazon Associates, the commission is so low where it would take you forever, bro. If you're saying your savings is drained now, bro.  Like it's gonna be that dry, you know? Because you're not gonna see commissions from Amazon anytime soon, man. Anytime soon when you don't have all the above. The following, the YouTube channel, the email list, all that, okay? So again, let's say you don't have that, right? You don't have any of that influence, right? What you're gonna have to do for sure, which is not gonna make any sense at all, but what you would have to do is you'd have to run paid traffic. You'd have to run Facebook ads. You'd have to run Instagram ads. You'd have to run YouTube ads. You'd have to. You would have to, right? Because you have no following. You have no influence.  You have nothing. So you would have to, but at the same time, you won't and nor do many people do because the commission over there on the Amazon Associates site is so freaking small. Like it's not even worth it. Like that's why these YouTubers they'll do review channels and they'll build up an affiliate marketing business. They'll build up an Amazon Associates business, but they're building it around the most expensive freaking products. So there's another tip.  Start doing reviews around the most expensive camera or things like that. You can go on to Amazon and find a lot of expensive stuff. That's what you wanna stay around. Okay, cause again, just do the math. You're selling a thousand dollar product, right?  You go get your Amazon associate link on Amazon and it's for a thousand dollar Canon camera. Your commission's 10%. You're making a hundred bucks, bro. And it's like, dude, like that's what I'm saying. That's not where it's at. That's not where it's at in my opinion, man. That's not where it's at. And that's where I started back in 2016 as I'm coming on to the internet, as I'm really taking everything I did offline and now trying to build something online, been grinding for the last few years, building something online. Amazon Associates is what I dipped my toes in back then. And it's like, dude, after I started building it up and as I started really looking into it and following other people, I'm like, shit, this is gonna take forever. These commissions are, and I even got a few monthly deposits as well. And I'm like, dang, that's it, it took forever. And that's not even a lot of money. So it's like, that's not where you start if you're starving, draining on your freaking last penny, bro. Like that's not where you start. So a few other affiliate platforms to take a look at could be these other platforms up here that I pulled up. So ClickBank could be a very, very, very good one for you. It's a very, very popular one for a lot of affiliates, ClickBank. And the reason for it is because they're digital products. On Amazon, you're dealing with physical products, right? You're dealing with physical products.  Like you're dealing with low ticket items on Amazon, every freaking item under the sun, but the majority of them are household items, right? Low ticket. The problem with Amazon is that it's a physical product and it's low ticket. It takes forever to be paid out and you got to hit a threshold of at least 100 bucks. Over here on ClickBank, this is where you can come over here and you can pick all these different niches. You can pick all these different niches and you can go find products inside these niches and the majority of them are digital type of products, meaning courses, coaching programs, things of that nature. You can come over here and find products where the commission is way, way higher. You sell one of these and you're making 235 per sell. Like that's where you wanna be. You do a few of those per week and you'll be up in your savings account in no time, right? But again, you're either building a personal brand, you have a huge email list or you're running paid traffic. When you come to commissions this high, that's when paid traffic makes sense. That's when paid traffic makes sense, is when you have commissions in the hundreds of dollars. Those are the type of products you wanna go after, man, is digital products, you can find a ton of them in ClickBank and the reason for it is because the majority of digital products are sold at a high price point. $1,000, $1,500, $2,000. These are people who are selling their knowledge. These are people who are selling courses, membership courses, coaching programs and they're giving you the ability to become an affiliate and make an extra income from it by simply referring it. But again, you gotta be running ads, man. You gotta either be building that personal brand like crazy or you're running ads, bottom line. And again, that's why Karcher, that's why I spent some time on the software, talking about the software in the beginning of this video because that software, you're gonna need it for everything, man. You're gonna need it to drive that traffic to a landing page to capture the lead. You're gonna need it for an email auto responder to nurture that email list so you can then email that list future offers, right? Because one day I may send them that link to take a look at that offer. Another day I might send them this other link to take a look at this other offer, right? Right here, super affiliate, John Crestani's auto webinar funnel. Look, dude, you can come in here for free. You set up a click bank account for free just like Amazon, right? Come over here and you start promoting. You get your own link right here. I click promote. I come over here, I get my link. So let's call this one. Let's just call this one whatever and then I can generate hop link, okay? Now this is my link right here. So this link is where I would post either in my email. I'd send this in my email or I would run a Facebook ad, you know? Like I would run a Facebook ad to a landing page and once I capture the lead, then I'll send them here, right? Because this is my unique affiliate link and every time I make a sale, I make $556. Like how insane is that? That right there is where it's at. Stop messing around with $5 commissions on Amazon, bro. It ain't gonna happen. You gotta come over here and go after high ticket products. And again, the majority of the high ticket products are digital, okay? They're not physical products. Although you can find physical products like a camera, microphone, things like that, but the majority of 90, I would say 98%. 98% of every product on Amazon is low ticket. Low ticket, super low ticket. I'm talking super low ticket, super low ticket, under a hundred bucks.  So I think I hit that one over the head enough, you guys. But this is where I would be, man. I would be on Clickbank looking at some of these offers and even maybe ShareCell. ShareCell is a super popular affiliate marketplace as well. And this is for other types of products like fashion and home and garden. You can come here, set up a free account and get a link to a lot of these different products. So look, fashion merchants, I can come in here and get a link from top companies. Jane, Trunk Club, Dogs, Tea Public. Like I can get a link for, let's see. What else do we got? Busted Teas, Sunfrog, Primary, the Real Real. So there's just Jane, there's real companies in here where I can get an affiliate link and start promoting these other products. But again, look, join our program and earn 7%. 7%, bro. Like look, this shirt right here probably costs $12. I'm gonna make 7%. That's what I'm saying. That's why I don't really mess with a lot of these affiliate programs because you gotta be building a huge brand around it, man. You gotta build a huge brand because you're not running Facebook ads to that at all.  Like, yeah, right, dude. Like that's not gonna feed our family, like at all at all. So normally I wouldn't even mess with ShareStell, but you guys could for sure check it out because it is a popular one.  So you can set all these platforms are free. So you can come in here and set up a free account on all of them and then just dive in and look at the different offers, look at the commissions and see if it's worth it, okay? But just keep in mind, man, you're gonna either need to be building a personal brand or you're gonna be running paid traffic, bottom line. And if you're running paid traffic, that's why Karcha makes all the sense in the world. You have to minimize your expenses, especially in the beginning, especially if you're on your last dollar and you need to be able to leverage the best software out there. And Karcha is definitely the best one for the money, right? Max Bounty, another popular affiliate program. You can set up a free account, go in here and look at a bunch of different offers. And then that's really the only ones that I would recommend. I wouldn't recommend any other ones, man. I wouldn't recommend Amazon Associates. You know, if anything, start at Clickbank and start looking at some of these products. What you're looking for on the Clickbank side is the Gravity Score. It's all about this Gravity Score, 207. The Gravity Score, and you can also search by popularity. That's what I would do, search by popularity. So this Gravity Score, it determines how popular that product is. So this product is selling like hotcakes right now. A lot of people on the Clickbank platform are succeeding selling this offer. So you may wanna do that, right? Or you can look at this other one. There's so many different ones in here. You can look at all these different niches. Like I chose e-business and e-marketing. I can go affiliate marketing. I can go blog marketing. I can look at all these different categories, man. All these different categories. And find products that other people are selling that I can make a commission from, right? Social media marketing, education, all these different green products, health and fitness. So many niches in here you guys that you can search from and grab your own link and start promoting it. But don't just blast it on social media, man. Actually build a brand around it. Build a brand around it, around it or start running paid traffic. And again, that's why Cartra is a game changer when it comes to nurturing that lead, capturing that lead and just managing that lead overall. You need software and Cartra is the one for that. So there's a link in the description, you guys. Profit with Cartra.online. There's a 14-day trial. You can compare it to whatever the heck you're using and see if it doesn't change your business. So shout out to Eric. Thank you so much for commenting, Eric. Thank you for your questions. I hope that made sense. I hope I didn't ramble too, too much. But if you have any questions, drop me a comment below and start there, man. Start with Cartra. It's the most affordable one. It's the most effective one. And then look into ClickBank for a higher pain commission and start with that. And again, man, start your brand, bro. Start building your brand. Start a YouTube channel. Everybody right now, man, go subscribe to Eric's YouTube channel. Let's get him some motivation. Let's start subscribing to his YouTube channel over here. So let's get him a little bit of momentum and get some people over here. Subscribe to his YouTube channel. Whatever you're talking about over here, man, let's tune it in and narrow it in to affiliate marketing. Look, man, I'm seeing right here music. I'm seeing it looks like a church. It looks like music. Bro, you can start looking at music. Like you can go to freaking, what's that popular music store? Shit, what's that popular one called? Oh, dude, it's gonna bug me. Popular music store. It is called Guitar Center, Guitar Center. Look, dude, I can go to Guitar Center, Guitar Center, and I can become an affiliate at Guitar Center. So look, I'm pretty sure they have an affiliate program. I'm pretty, pretty sure. See, looking at Eric's channel, look, bro, I'm just gonna assume that you're in, actually, I don't even know, I'm just assuming, but let's just say you're into music because it looks like everybody's singing. If you're into music, start talking about products and instruments in the music space. And come over here to Guitar Center. If you scroll to the bottom, let's see, where is their affiliate program? Right there, bam, affiliate program. I can come to Guitar Center, set up a free affiliate account, and start getting links to all of these products, guitars, pianos, keyboards, microphone. Bro, and then I can take all that and I can start talking about it on my YouTube channel, right? And then I can start linking everything in the description. That's what I would do, Eric. If that's what you're into, I don't know, I'm over here seeing keyboards and speakers. Like, if that's what you're into, bro, start there.   You're gonna be doing it just for the money. And guess what, the money ain't even gonna come. So you gotta be fired up about it because it's the only thing that's gonna keep you in the game. It's the only thing that's gonna get you fired up to wanna come over here to even talk about it. Why do you think I'm over here talking about Cartra? Why do you think I'm over here building a YouTube channel? Because I'm talking about stuff that excites me, I'm talking about stuff that I have experience in, I'm talking about stuff that gets me fired up, right? And if I can make a commission from it all, right? That's exactly what I'm doing over here, man. I'm talking about Cartra on YouTube and tons of you are signing up with Cartra which is allowing me to make money, right? It's like, dude, it's a win-win. And then on top of it all, as you build out that channel and you start to get a ton of subscribers, you then start getting paid from YouTube with ad money, right? And so that's where I'm at now also. I get a check every month from Cartra, my affiliate marketing business, and then I get a check every month from YouTube which is my YouTube ad money.  So I hope that made sense, Eric. Shout to Eric, everybody subscribe to his channel and I'll see you guys on the next video, over and out.

Well, this is probably the first area where there is a key difference because from a shelf-opiel perspective, they're very different. They've got, let's start with that P790 and P790 have got that sort of brushed satin look. Very minimal in its design and very popular. P790-e'n been a hugely popular selling iron from tailor made and then yn Llwysleoedd yn cael ei hynrydd. It's very similar in terms of very full iron, no cavity back. But it's full of a lot of shiny chrome as well. And I think that depending on what suits your eye the shelf appeal is no difference. But what about when you turn these two things over, two seven irons in hand. How do they differ in terms of head profile. Before I actually turn them upside down and look at the top line from a width of sole, very little difference at all. ac mae gennym yn ymddangos teimlo i gyd.

I'm just going to switch out into a T200 and yet again, if you've seen my original review, this is one of the areas again that I think has been a big improvement. Yeah solid ball and hopefully you managed to pick that up. In my opinion what you'll notice is that the T200 is a huge leap forward in terms of that category. I think it's always one of the most difficult elements to get right is this forged face but not a fully forged iron. Can you get them feeling the way you want? I think they've both done a great job but I'll be leaning towards what the T200s have done for me. Super, super feel and both like I said huge leaps forward. You're going to have to try them out, see what suits your ear but hopefully you can perhaps have picked up just a little bit of difference between the two from the audio in this video. Before we go any further you can do my own little case study I always like to know sort of where brands are at and what are you considering in terms of these two? Brand new to market, big following on both these sets of irons. Really really popular, going uphill to the masses have either of these irons got on appeal to you and if so which and all I want is a simple comment down below T200 or P790. Today's video is brought to you in partnership with HotGolf, the online golf mega store bringing you the hottest deals in golf and of course the clubs featured in today's video. Find a link to the HotGolf website in the description below and check out some incredible giveaways and offers. So the next question is of course performance and I have only got a 7 iron in the T200s so our heads ahead is good old classic 7 iron vs 7 iron, lofts are exactly the same, different shafts have got a dynamic gold shaft in the P790 and we've got an AMT shaft, they're both similar weight and both same flex so there's not a huge amount of difference in them but it's worth highlighting that there is a different shaft in these two irons and of course what I'll do is I'm going to hit a few balls with each and then I'll record a full sort of range of data off camera but I'll give you my first sort of feelings. The first feeling is and I can tell you this from balls of it off camera that was a P790 by the way is extremely high launching, sort of 5 iron and 7 iron and I've hit 5 iron for some other testing I'm doing and they've done an incredible job of getting this ball launching extremely high without a compromise on kind of ball speed spin and all those other kind of things and overall carry obviously. You'll keep seeing that my eye line is just not the ball fire expecting I think every club manufacturer has done really well in recent years in improving and helping average golfers with this sort of launch angle, we've just had a conversation, we're a gentleman in here who's had some sort of classic Mizuno irons, classic as in terms of loft or traditional in terms of loft and he just done some testing in here and recognise that stronger lofted clubs were launching a ball of same as his traditional lofted Mizuno's and with no detriment to kind of spin and all those other kind of things so I think their mindset has changed and we're sort of catching on to that now but yeah an extremely high ball flight that Taylor made have got with that P790 line up which is all good for average golfers, yeah again I mean you know super ball flight cut across that one a little bit I'm sorry we've got no sort of ball tracking date if you'd have a look at and that's why I want to keep this brief in terms of me hitting shots down the range and we can have a look at my dispersion later I'll hit one more with the T200 no I won't hit one more because I've just thinned that and one thing is always prevalent is that forgiveness is one thing but if you thin a ball off the bottom and you hit a bad shot well I'm afraid you're gonna have to take some responsibility yeah that's better super shot super ball flight hopefully again few more shots hit with a camera on you can start to notice the difference between the two in terms of sound forged face neither of them are sounding like a forged iron so to speak slightly bit of clickiness between the two I would say a slightly softer feel coming off that T200 either way do you know what I'm just gonna keep this very brief simple and straightforward I'll hit more balls with both not many more because we've got a fairly consistent even just those two alone were very consistent indeed let's finish off let's go through the data what makes these two irons different if anything like that's it all we can do in terms of hitting golf balls I've only sort of what is it far or six with one seven with another but we've pretty much got to a position where I'm happy with what we've got we sort of kept the swing speed clubbed speed relatively controlled against something I've been trying to do this year which is trying to replicate my swing that I would hit out on the golf course rather than the one that you hit on the range was often a little bit quicker at times a little bit less control because you don't have to worry about it as much so anyway 70 look at this this is interesting so the first thing clubbed speed 76.6 with the 790 76.8 so we've got a good correlation in terms of how fast I was swinging a club that's a good start let's go to the carry distances I'll put each set of numbers side by side straight from the get-go and then maybe at the end I'll put the six or seven shots of each if you want to sort of pick the bones of it but essentially really interesting the average 152.4 carry with a tight list 150.7 with the 790 we've got a 109 ball speed versus a 110 ball speed 85 p kite 82 p kite 18.3 launch on the T 200 19.4 on that the 790 and a spin number which is pretty impressive on both as well and a descent angle just a little bit of a steeper descent angle coming from a P 790 and again that's relative to that launch angle so the verdict really is this they're pretty much inseparable apart from the one thing I've commented on throughout and that is the fact that there's a shaft difference as well which you're going to meet just a little bit of a caveat before I say what I'm going to say and that is that the P 790 definitely launched the ball visibly higher now it's one degree higher according to the stats in track man so that's well that's what it did but it was a noticeable difference for me in terms of ball flight in here I'm not really sure what's gone on with P 790s but like I said both the 7 iron and the 5 iron that I tested in the original review are launching a ball really really high they've certainly optimized launch conditions but it's not at a loss of distance spin is banging where it should be five and a half thousand revs for me and that descent angle obviously makes a difference to stop in a ball that said the T 200 I've got pretty much near as dammit in terms of the data but the one thing that T 200 has over the P 790 in my opinion is just a little bit better in terms of that sound and the feel whilst the P 790s improved in terms of that hollow body construction always a little bit clicky for me P790s it's improved but still if it was the one criticism I've got of the club that would be it where the T 200s have got a real nice feel and sound to them then you got that looks department which said at the beginning not something I personally want to get involved in in terms of opinions they're both really good looking clubs and I think you've got that you've got the price point which again I don't think I'll put it on screen for you now because this is filmed before T 200s were released but in terms of a retail I don't think there's going to be a great deal of difference separating these two clubs they're both very much at the expensive end of the marketplace but I do feel like you're getting either way you're getting a good set of clubs but you're going to have to invest a bit of money to get your hands on them so all the things you're going to choose is first of all custom fit is imperative you've got to find out what the differences are between the two of these clubs in your hand especially when you're paying that kind of money and then the decision you're going to make is going to be based on real personal preferences like I said it's going to be the sound and feel it's going to be the looks it's going to be maybe some brand loyalty which way do you swear you're a title story a tailor made fan they're the kind of things that are going to change you we've got to a situation right now with two clubs that have been released where they're almost perfect in terms of hitting every kind of parameter in terms of data so for me where we went with driver a few years back where it was all optimized I feel with these two sets of irons we've got to a situation where we're getting very very similar how are you going to improve those numbers I think it's going to be a difficult job to see any sort of advancements moving forward that's the problem so that's my opinion tie this T200s or P790s they're going to be massive sellers for both brands they hit the main market point in my opinion can appeal to a whole range of golfers throughout the sort of handicap spectrum it's all down to you and your personal preferences which way you go right that's me done as ever thank you for watching let me know your feedback as soon as you tried these two out I'd love to you to come back to the video and give me your thoughts as well and agree or disagree but either way just let me know in that comment section thanks as ever for watching see you soon


A rule of inference is a way we can derive a true statement from other statements we know to be true. They have Latin names. The names aren't used outside of formal logic, so we won't worry about them, except perhaps as interesting pieces of trivia. One way to look at the rules of inference is to imagine you're playing a game where you can bet on whether a simple statement is true or false. And you know that a particular compound statement is true, and so the question you've got to ask yourself is, do you feel lucky? Or, more specifically, what will you bet on? So for example, let's find a rule of inference based on the conjunction a and b. So to begin with, let's set up our truth table for this conjunction. So each row in the truth table corresponds to a certain assignment of the truth values of a and of b, and that in turn gives us a truth value for the conjunction a and b. So if we know that a and b is true, what can we conclude? Well, first of all, we know we're not dealing with any of the cases where a and b is false. And so here's the question. You have $20. What will you put it on? So remember that in order for our conjunction to be true, both statements have to be true. And so we know a is true, and if we put our $20 on a is true, we win. We could have also put it on b as true because we also know that, and this leads to the rule of inference. If a conjunction is true, its component statements are true. So for example, let's assume the following is true. 36 is a perfect square that is divisible by 9. What can we conclude from this? So this corresponds to the conjunction. 36 is a perfect square, and 36 is divisible by 9. Now, we're assuming this is true. So if a conjunction is true, its component statements are true. And so we can conclude 36 is a perfect square. Now, since the conjunction a and b is the same as the conjunction b and a, or is it? You can show that these are logically equivalent. And so we can also conclude that 36 is divisible by 9. How about the disjunction a or b? As before, we could set up a truth table. Every row of the truth table corresponds to an assignment of the truth values of a and of b. And there's a corresponding truth value of the disjunction a or b. And we know that a or b is true, so we're one of these three cases, but we don't know which one. And so the question is, what are you willing to put $20 on? Let's think about this a little. Now, the disjunction a or b could be true in any of three cases. Both a and b are true. A is true, but b is false. And b is true, but a is false. And the problem is we know that at least one of a or b has to be true, but we don't know which one, and we should hesitate to put down any money at all. So if we know the disjunction is true, then we know not very much. And so it's important to keep in mind knowing that a disjunction is true isn't very useful. How about the conditional? Suppose you know that both a then b is true and also that a is true. Find the corresponding rule of inference. Well, again, let's set up our truth table. What we know is that a is true, and if a then b is also true. And the only time that occurs is in this line of the truth table. And that's because if a is true, the only way for the conditional to be true is if b is true. And since we know we have to be in this line of the truth table, that means we should be happy to put $20 and say that b must also be true. And this gives us another useful rule of inference. If the antecedent of a conditional is true, the consequent is also true. This particular rule of inference is known as modus ponens. That's one of those Latin names that are occasionally used for the rules of inference. So suppose all primes greater than two are odd. Let n be a prime greater than two. What can you say about n? So first of all, suppose is mathematical speak for assume this is true. So first we'll rewrite our premise as a conditional. If n is a prime greater than two, then it is odd. Now let is also mathematical speak for assume this is true. So we're assuming that n is a prime greater than two. And that's the antecedent of our conditional. And remember, if the antecedent of a conditional is true, the consequent is also true. And so we might say the following, since n is a prime greater than two, we can conclude that n is odd. One more important rule of inference comes from the following. Suppose we know that b is false and that if a then b is true, let's find the corresponding rule of inference. And we've set up truth tables for everything else, so this time we should set up a truth table. So we know that b is false and the conditional if a then b is true. And that means we have to be in this line of the truth table. If b is false, the only way that the conditional can be true is if a is false. And so we know that a is false and I'm willing to put $20 on that claim. And this leads to another important rule of inference. If a conditional is true but the consequent is false, then the antecedent must also be false. And the Latin name for this is modus tallens. So we claim every odd perfect square is one more than a multiple of four. What can you say about 51? We claim is another way to say the following statement is true. So let's rewrite our statement as a conditional. If an odd number is a perfect square, then it is one more than a multiple of four. And we note that 51 is not one more than a multiple of four. So remember, if a conditional is true but the consequent is false, then the antecedent must also be false. And that means our antecedent must be false. That it is not an odd number that is a perfect square. But there's a bonus. Odd number that is a perfect square is a conjunction of two statements. The number is odd. The number is a perfect square. Since this conjunction is false, remember that for a conjunction to be false, one of the component statements must be false. But we know that 51 is odd. And since 51 is odd, the first statement is true. And this means the second statement must be false. And so we also know that 51 is not a perfect square.
