I don't think it's illegal, but rather where you park can make it illegal.

How is that illegal?

I think the bigger issue is when it disappears and doesn't come back until you rewrite the line. Sometimes I've had to even reload the project.

You say that but they literally went to court against a journalist claiming they "hacked" them because the journalist simply referenced their html code that is visible from pressing F12.

Luckily I think the case was dismissed but it was really close and was extremely problematic to begin with.

Seems like the courts haven't caught on, but most people migrated to yt-dlp.

I do wish they rebranded the project to get rid of YouTube from the name. It can do so much more and is insanely powerful. It should be advertised as a generic video extractor. Don't know if it'd help legal issues though, despite them not actually breaking laws.

That's a load of shit lol, also there's absolutely nothing good that can be drawn from these conclusions. All this can achieve is political pundits some ammo to cry about on their shows.
