But if you look at our modern word, the products we use, all came from those 2 steves. The terminal, the personal computer, the idea of a mouse and a screed with “windows” and drops down menus, color screens, touch smartphones. Since Jobs died, it all died. Everything has stayed the same. Why? Because it’s business men running the show, and for business it’s a lot safer and easier to just to the same thing better and improved and sell products to a cult like audience. The biggest invention since then has been what, phones that fold? Apple has done nothing since they left.

When framed like that its easy to see. But this scam is expertly crafted to be very misleading and abuses the confidence you have in KZread and eases your skepticism. You have a featured, "live" conference with thousands of viewers(30k+), on a channel with 200k+ subs, and a millionaire speaker who probably WOULD give his money away. They are "donating" millions to bitcoin, therefore it doesn't need to make sense financially for them. In the conference, they are promoting bitcoin like everyone should have it. So the giveaway doesn't even register as not being a part of the "event". It can make sense like, "oh they just want people to have bitcoin, you send bitcoin just to show you have some or bought some, and as incentive you will be rewarded like they believe bitcoin will be rewarding in the future". What is more worrying is that it is a relatively new scam, not a lot of people know they can be watching a "live" conference from 3 years ago, or that views/subs/likes can be inflated by bots.

Met Steve at an event in Berkeley several years back. Incredibly down to earth and friendly guy. Good for him.

Good for him! Especially since he’s not using his privilege to resolve this. Instead he’s proving how difficult it is if you’re a normal person.

Steve ... true American Hero ... You have my everlasting respect. Effectively, 911 calls for cybercrimes, what a difference that would make.

hero to the world i'd say. his genius created the entire pc industry years ahead of it would have been created had he not been there, which means that today so many people (office workers) even in not so well developed countries can work from home without losing pay or job in this pandemic because the technology is now so advanced

Even though I am not an Apple fanboy, I have always had huge respect for Woz

The most modest comment I have heard "we are just normal people".

He's doing the right thing, KZread should have dealt with this when he reported the issue through their normal lines. YT be quick when demonetizing though

It’s surreal to see this man, who was a key person in galvanizing the computer centered society we live in now, complain about how we need a more human touch.

@@TheLegendSpeaker why would a scammer use an average person to promote their activity? That makes no sense. You need to use someone the mark recognizes and imagines backs the scam up.

I respect this guy for standing for common people. Most tech giants are in tech for just money. What they need to do is to set up call centers, where people can actively reach them. This will not only create jobs but make the process of eradicating scam and illegal content much easier. Not everything needs to be done by computers. It's just their way of keeping more money. What they should actually be doing is creating jobs! Give back to the community. And create better platforms. It would also resolve the KZread algorithms taking down videos.

2:19 It's funny because she acts like she is reading back a personally written statement made just for her, but it's just the same generic automated response every one else gets, basically proving Steve's point.

I appreciate that Woz doesn't want to use his celebrity status to resolve this (with KZread) in ways other people can't - but at the same time I feel like he kind of has a responsibility to do so. I mean, the reason his name is attached to these scams in the first place is specifically *because* he has that celebrity status, because that status has some degree of value and power. Someone without that celebrity status would have a harder time getting KZread's attention about an issue like this - but it would also be less likely to be an issue in the first place because their name wouldn't have the same kind of value attached to make it worth using as a banner for a scam. And now he is using the power of his name and reputation - but to call attention to the problems in KZread's process rather than directly to deal with the scam. And I guess I'm a bit on the fence about that one. On the one hand I appreciate it because I would like to see those processes be better. On the other hand he chose not to use that same power to stop the scam itself. I dunno. I hope he gets it all sorted though.

You make a good point Mr. Wozniak's "Integrity" about" not using means other people don't have" does not really derive from anything. He used means other people don't have to invent the amazing technologies he created. He used means others don't have to build companies and yes, he's using it now to draw attention to this issue. Meanwhile, how many people could have been saved from the scam if he had just called up ANYONE at KZread/Google/Alphabet and said "I'm Steve Wozniak, I built the bulwark of your industry, and I have a problem?" Ultimately, no one is guilty for crimes but the criminals themselves, but there is more than one way to look at this story.

The sad thing is that it’s still going on but instead with Ethereum and XRP

I see so many scams on KZread that are coming up as you tube sponsored advertisements that lead to a KZread channel with less than 300 subscribers and are random channels that have no videos

Wozniak is suing KZread and I learned this on KZread...

They used a lot of people, like Jack Dorsey and Vitalik Buterin and others too to promote this scam giveaway.

Emily Chang probably is a person whom she thinks that everyone has a privilige to reach out CEO of KZread! She should be commending Steve Wozniak for using the same channel that any ordinary people would use. She forgets that this is a serious issue that can happen to anyone! Her questions are very condescending towards a person who had contributed so much to the world. Emily Chang's one sided approach tells skills as journalist. Soon, she would like to secure an interview with the CEO and go easy with the CEO...Please be more professional, Emily Chang! Yes, I know...I am writing on the same platform I am critising!

Most of media people nowadays are more or less similar, smug, entitled, holier than thou. Get away from such persons, keep your mind hygiene

There have been hundreds of thousands of accounts in different social media platforms advertising cryptocurrency scams since April. Most of them are from Africa and these groups need to be put in prison. Just like what Steve meant here the reporting of these scam accounts is close to impossible. I had reported dozens of fake accounts in Facebook, all of which were African made, and the support team said “nothing about them is illegal”... These social media companies need to be sued on how very careless and broken their tech support are. A lot of people are “investing” on these scams and their money will never be returned.

Mr Wozniak lectures here in Sydney, I had a chance to meet him and he seemed to be going somewhere; I apologised and he said he'll make time to talk to me next time. He spotted me around the Campus, maybe 2 weeks later? He came up, apologised for last time and then gave me undivided attention for around 30 mins. I was learning about Investing, and he was so honest about himself; he especially said, "Look, don't focus on hype. It's okay to let the hype die down. That's when you focus. It can help to not jump the boat too quickly, just take your time, do your analysis, and you'll know what you have. Trust that, the data won't lie to you". Cheers.

Steve wozniak did take this interview to rant about how people are using his name to scam people, he used it to bring greater awareness to the fact that the average person that experiences something like this on youtube does not have the ability to contact a live human being and the systems set in place by youtube are doing nothing to remedy problems experienced by everyday users. Interviewer question was warranted and answered.

The same ads just keeps popping up, sometimes they alternate the picture of the same celebrity or even have a different celebrity or company.

Honestly, thank you so much Steve Wozniak. He went through the channels we would all have to go through rather than just contacting someone to take care of it quickly while not ever really fixing the issue. Hopefully this will be the start to “better customer” (is that the right term? Lol) service in the industry.
