Hi,
I confess I didn't read through all 50++ pages of this thread yet.
I understand the situation from what I read: the kodi youtube plugin needs a youtube API access key, the plugin developer can't/wont' let use all use his own keys anymore. There are no "free" access keys because google won't let them be, so everybody must create his own.
Question: I don't know enough about the context. By creating a developer access and youtube keys with my own google account - is there any risk google could decide to blacklist my account for some reason? For example if I do something wrong and the plugins connects badly to often? Usage will be normal, just a home media center for a family, low usage.
In other words: should I create another new google account for myself and create the keys with that one instead of my "real" google account? In that case, will I be able to use the API Keys of this new dev account, but log in with the plugin into google/youtube with my main account (in order to get my own history, likes, playlists and so on)?
OTOH, would I be in violation with google somehow by creating a secondary (fake?) google account for the API keys?
Thanks
