Criticism over hate speech, misinformation, and extremist content
Odysee's broad moderation philosophy and decentralized structure have been associated with the spread of hate speech, conspiracy theories, COVID-19 and vaccine misinformation, far-right material, and content from neo-Nazi or other extremist groups. The architecture can make harmful material difficult to remove consistently.
Hosting of firearm-related files
The platform has hosted non-video files related to 3D-printed firearms, including high-capacity magazines and auto sears. This has prompted concern because the material may involve potentially restricted items and can be distributed through a decentralized network.
Geo-blocking and regulatory concerns
Odysee has faced geo-blocking restrictions in regions including the European Union amid concerns about harmful or disinforming content.
