the source code is not what's illegal.

note that it doesn't exempt or allow any particular os. all users are prohibited from download videos.

Why do you think it's always only iOS that can't graphically download
youtube videos

it can, but just like with *every* *other* *os*, it's a violation of
the terms of service.

What's always the case with you iNuts, nospam, is you can't stand that it's only iOS that can't do thousands of useful things every other OS does.

Hence, you desperately fabricate that the reason iOS can't do thousands of useful things that every other OS does, is because doing them is illegal.

note that it doesn't exempt or allow any particular os. all users are
prohibited from download videos.

In your desperation for declaring every useful thing iOS can't do is
illegal, you forget that Google knows _exactly_ what the code does, and,
better yet, the code developers _openly_ state they use legal APIs.

For example... you iNuts are ignorant of this simple fact...
"NewPipe works by fetching the required data from the official API
(e.g. PeerTube) of the service you're using. If the official API is
restricted (e.g. YouTube) for our purposes, or is proprietary,
the app parses the website or uses an internal API instead.
This means that you don't need an account on any service to use NewPipe.

Also, since they are free and open source software, neither the app
nor the Extractor use any proprietary libraries or frameworks,
such as Google Play Services. "
<https://github.com/TeamNewPipe/NewPipe>

You iNuts are desperate to come up with a different fabricated excuse for
why it's only iOS that can't do useful things every other OS easily does.

it's *you* who can't do those things.

others can, and even told you how they can be done, which you ignore so
you can troll.

citing newpipe isn't the claim you think it is, given that it's not
allowed on the play store.

Only when Google does it.

You persist in fabricating purely imaginary functionality for iOS when
everyone knows you can't point to a single app that does what you claim.

Heh heh heh ... *you're _desperate_ nospam* to fabricate purely imaginary functionality for iOS that you can never point to a single app that does.

This is how I know you iNuts lack intelligence, nospam, given your own arguments instantly fail the _simplest_ of tests, given there are thousands
of app functionalities "not allowed" in the Google Play Store repository.

For example, you need to fabricate a _different_ idiotic excuse for each
app "not allowed" in the Google Play Store, such as Ungoogled Chromium and NetGuard, for example - where your claim they're illegal is preposterous.

How you iNuts always manage to miss the strategic concept is no longer
shocking in that both the low-IQ Alan Baker and the vicious Jolly Roger
seem to think the fact iOS can't do thousands of useful things every other operating system easily does... is somehow... due to... a 'curated' GPS?

WTF?

you're so lost that you can't comprehend that not everything requires
an app. a lot of what you claim to want to do is often *part* of ios
itself.

For example, you need to fabricate a _different_ idiotic excuse for each
app "not allowed" in the Google Play Store, such as Ungoogled Chromium and NetGuard, for example - where your claim they're illegal is preposterous.

nobody ever said that ungoogled chromium or netguard was illegal, liar.
