If allowing ads is part of the terms of their service for non-paying users, then they are in fact free to not grant you access to the video feed.

It's still shitty, but this isn't a thing where you can have your cake and eat it too.



> then they are in fact free to not grant you access to the video feed.

Correct, but as long as they do grant me access to the video feed, I should be free to modify how it is rendered on my end as I wish.


You're not granted access to the video feed, unconditionally. You know, same as you're not granted any GPL code unconditionally.

If you want unconditional video streams - Wikimedia is the place for you.
