It’s a big burden for freedom of expression. When there is a lie spread by actual journalists, it’s extremely important to be able to download the video, criticize it, show the moment the journalist lies, reupload it.
Otherwise we become like DDR Germany where the people in power never get criticized or held accountable for what they say.
The shareholder rights are collateral damage, not the main damage. We’re not mainly using youtube-dl to copy copyrighted material.
