Video uploading sites are supposed to be free. Social media is meant for the masses. Of course a user has the right to maintain privacy. In this case, video uploading sites like Peertube, rumble gives the option of keeping the video private. There's also a provision for unlisted videos, which can be watched only when the person has access to the link. Otherwise watching videos on social media is free.

Only youtube has this system of paying for watching videos.

So my question is, is there any means of cracking youtube so that we can have a share of the paid content as well ?

Video uploading sites are supposed to be free. Social media is meant for the masses. Of course a user has the right to maintain privacy.

Those are baseless, throw-away assertions. For instance, video uploading & streaming sites obviously cost money—a lot of money in terms of storage and bandwidth. Who exactly is supposing that they “should” be free or private? You? Then just say that you want a free, private site, without framing it in a fantasy universal morality.
