If you don't want anyone to take your shit and shut you down, just stream to your own Cloudflare Stream endpoint. Hosting video in Cloudflare is also cheap. Sure, they could shut down or seize it, but ultimately the real problem here isn't where the video is hosted, but how the video is located by potential viewers.
It seems likely that nostr could be built into something that aggregates video sources that are just URI pointers, just like it does now with images. A metadata schema would need to be implemented, but some of those already exist, like Dublin Core.
Ultimately the value of Youtube or Rumble is not as a host, but as a metadata viewer.
