They might mean YouTube red? Which is the premium version of YouTube where videos keep playing in the background on your phone and no ads so it’s mainly used for music. It’s just the YouTube app itself however.

I hate credit card fees as much as the next guy, but to be fair my credit card was the only way I could pay for things in Asia since I just lived there for 6 months. If I had used cash, the only ATM near me stole my friends debit card, and

AWS has different options for different companies/data. They even have options for US government data that are certified by DSS I believe, and they have options if you need PCI, HIPAA, and other types of compliance. See: https:/&

Also is there not always a conflict of interest with bug bounties anyway, as a friend of an employee could always 'find a bug' somewhere. I'm not sure I see the how being Project Zero or a normal user makes a difference.

Or filing of civil/criminal charges if they've been warned before. If a private entity uses public space as a private space and prevents people from using it, that's illegal. You can do a lot more than name and shame.
