I remember Viewly was accused of being a scam. And second they announced in steemit where dtube was. If they said they was going to be an SMT people would still follow it. And third dtube i heard was going to have it own token using SMT so that might of killed it too.

As far as I can tell, Viewly isn't a scam -- but maybe you're remembering viuly. Viuly was definitely a scam.
I'm pretty sure Viewly was first announced before DTube; Viewly ran their first alpha using the Steem blockchain. Then DTube came out with a (semi-)working product, and Viewly went to Ethereum to run their ICOs.
Viewly's new Ethereum-based alpha platform actually works, and actually does interface in some way with Ethereum smart contracts. I just verified all that in the past day. I was able to publish a video by manually calling the smart contracts from my Parity instance.
there were scam projects trying to get the name,
they were announced before Dtube,
It's understandable they want to have controls over their code, something you can't have on steem, the code is steem, like it or not, no smart-contracts. Even if the technology allows for it, EOS is an example.
@furion is a great dev, that alone is enough to prove it's not a scam, but I suppose you just saw some post titles.
