The aggregator uses lots of users existing accounts with their real logins. Using appletv again for an example, it wants to check prepend’s specific Hulu, Netflix, hbo, Disney, etc to see new episodes and whatnot related to my specific account.
So it has a real login and, presumably, access to some api from the streamer. But a smaller company that didn’t pay for access could also just login as my accounts and scrape info.
