It's in that weird gray area as it is playing from illegal sites it just removes the usual ads and stuff
Lol idk how removing ads and just rehosting the video is a gray area but whatever works for me... I figured when I first clicked on it, it was like a watch party kind of thing. Like I post a video file then whoever I want can watch it with me... Not just pulling video files from other sites lol. Still, seems cool and is super slick
They do not rehost. It's still coming directly from the illegaé sites.
Newpipe is in that gray area too and they're still going strong despite the best legal efforts from youtube.
