If embedding grants the site owner the ability to execute privileged code on my system, it is unreasonable. I wouldn't expect or want YouTube to gain full access to my system (or my user account at least) when I run a chat program.

it doesn't, unless there's a hole in the browser. which in this case, there was.

  If being on the whitelist doesn't grant any special privilege, why have a whitelist? I got the impression that it's for security, but I want my machine to be secure from YouTube as well.
