From a cursory look this looks like proprietary SaaSS which means we _don’t_ know how it works and can’t use “this technique” in our own programs.\n\nIf I had to guess though, because you can’t just magically \"make the age verification go away” they probably have their own account(s) that they are feeding the request through. Maybe something like Aurora store’s “anonymous accounts.” Maybe even the tokens from Aurora store’s token dispenser can be reused for this, although I can’t say for certain.\n\nUnless you are simply suggesting NewPipe should feed requests through this proprietary SaaSS site instead, which is a very bad idea imo. Adding a dependency on some mystery third party blackbox proprietary app brings much more trouble than its worth, because (privacy reasons aside) we can’t guarantee what that site will do and how long that site will stay up.",
