    How about creating a bot that decrypts the blob format in which YouTube vidoes are stored in, and upload them to a PeerTube instance.

    We should call this instance PirateTube. No ads, and technically, since we are not making money out of it, it will be considered as fair usage.

      Like, downloading the video files with yt-dlp and then uploading them? Or streaming, like what Piped/LibreTube do?

      I personally have my own piped server, and don’t enter to youtube for anything. The only 2 things it can’t do are post comments and see live streams comments. No ads, no tracking, i can do whatever i want without google’s permission
