Honest question:
what about newpipe is secured against google cracking down on ad evasion through ~~utilizing their api~~ (just read their FAQ, they don't use the api. Though still, I imagine google has other options to crack down on this type of use)? I imagine google is one bad day from breaking things like newpipe because people are circumventing their ads?
I think that they dont use the Api is the reason why it works. Maybe they use RSS too, Freetube does that as Fallback.
If Google implements WEI we are fucked. And they could somehow bind an ad server to the content, only it the server is used, content is loaded
