Verbatim from my comment: "the youtube.com undocumented api"
Thanks for reading.
- dewey 6y agoThe top level comment you are replying to and nitpicked the "scraping" verb doesn't say anything about YouTube or the YouTube API.
- outadoc 6y agoYes, thanks, I was using "scraping" in a more generic way, since I'm sure it does actually use scraping for most video providers. In fact I'm pretty sure I've seen youtube-dl mention downloading the HTML page when using it with YouTube, so maybe it does even scrape YouTube.
