I always wondered why Someone doesn’t make a YouTube like app that connects to content repositories via end to end encryption so Apple can’t see what content you are accessing. You could connect to something like Khan Academy for educational videos. This would also allow you to connect to Pornhub or something similar in a native experience without Apple being able to stop it.
- nl 7y agoYes you can do that, and get banned as soon as Apple finds out.
- leppr 7y agoThere's a huge area of seemingly obvious user-centric products that don't exist simply because there isn't a working business model to support it.
- saagarjha 7y agoI mean VLC already exists and it can stream videos from the websites that you point it at. I’d guess the only think it’s missing at this point is youtube-dl integration.
- fauigerzigerk 7y agoYou mean something like a Web browser? I think letting users find and select content is the only way to avoid getting banned. As soon as the app does anything to nudge users toward a particular kind of content it risks getting banned.
