|
|
|
An open-source alternative frontend for YouTube which is efficient by design.
|
|
|
|
# The Problem
|
|
|
|
YouTube has an extremely invasive privacy policy which relies on using user data in unethical ways. You give them a lot of data - ranging from ideas, music taste, content, political opinions, and much more than you think.
|
|
|
|
By using Piped, you can freely watch and listen to content without the fear of prying eyes watching everything you are doing.
|
|
