h1 Google Drive Userscript
|

h2 Why?
|
||||
p.
|
||||
Since Google Drive support was launched in early 2014, it has broken
|
||||
at least 4-5 times, requiring increasing effort to get it working again
|
||||
and disrupting many channels. This is because there is no official API
|
||||
for it like there is for YouTube videos, which means support for it
|
||||
relies on undocumented tricks. In August 2016, the decision was made
|
||||
to phase out the native support for Google Drive and instead require
|
||||
users to install a userscript, which allows to bypass certain browser
|
||||
restrictions and make the code easier, simpler, and less prone to failure
|
||||
(it could still break due to future Google Drive changes, but is less
|
||||
likely to be difficult to fix).

This functionality is provided <strong>as-is</strong> for backwards
|
||||
compatibility for existing users for whom it already is known to work.
|
||||
There are many reasons, known and unknown, for which it may
|
||||
<strong>not</strong> work for you; please note the staff in CyTube
|
||||
support channels cannot provide any troubleshooting assistance and you
|
||||
will be asked to simply use a different video provider.
|
||||
p.
|
||||
This functionality was originally added so that users could share their
|
||||
own personal videos stored in their Drive. No support whatsoever will
|
||||
be provided to users attempting to use it to circumvent copyright
|
||||
restrictions on third-party video hosts.

h2 How It Works
