This might just be my own environment, but it seems like VLC's ability to stream from Youtube breaks very frequently. Is that just a side-effect of Google constantly updating their YT infrastructure, or do you believe they are intentionally introducing changes to sabotage the ability for third-party programs such as VLC to render their streams?

They change the layout of the pages often, to block VLC and youtube-dl

  Doubt they care about that, it's just a sideeffect of redesigning for the sake of redesigning. You see this everywhere, not just youtube.
