SOLUTION!? Use a trampoline relay, like the well maintained "invidious" which uses "youtube-dl" libraries and other anti-youtube tricks.

Nearly all of these download reuploaders work still in 2021, and some work with age restricted videos too:

yewtu.be
invidious.snopyta.org
invidious.fdn.fr
vid.mint.lgbt
vid.puffyan.us
nvidio.xamh.de
nsfwyoutube.com

Because, why not?

See? Just alter the ends of those links to see your hidden or blocked JewGle JewTube videos.

others similar to my list exist that use cloudflare, those above do not spy yet, and do not yet use cloudflare
