BitChute is a video hosting service launched by Ray Vahey in January 2017.
It is known for accommodating far-right individuals and conspiracy theorists, and for hosting hate speech.
Some creators who use BitChute have been banned from YouTube; some others crosspost content to both platforms or post more extreme content only to BitChute.
The platform also hosts misinformation related to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The conspiracy theory video Plandemic has been viewed on BitChute millions of times after having been removed from other platforms for spreading medically harmful misinformation.
