Cryptocurrency and specifically bitcoin has a clear definition, using an immutable blockchain, fully decentralized, censorship resistant, etc. Copycat-coins such as BSV that are abusing the name "bitcoin" have none of these characteristics ergo they are categorized as shitcoins.
AFAIK,anyone can become a miner in bsv. also keep in mind that bitcoin hash power is conenctrated in the hands of just a few large miners from what i've heard.
It doesn't. In my opinion, any fork that's highly manipulated by one entity and can't scale has no utility. Mainly, because it isn't censorship resistant. Better share your videos with torrents or if you're too cool for school, use Tor and sleep easy.
torrents only stay online as long as people keep sharing it. it's not going to be around forever. blockchains are meant to be around longer than torrents. so storing data is one utility that a blockchain could offer, dont you think? i think we could agree that bitcoin doesn't really offer that service.
torrents are probably alot more susceptible to being taken down than blockchain data. with regards to copyright infringement issues or legality things.
