+1 meowface 23.

Sorry, I'm pitching in because I can't help myself. I agree with meowface23 and it is for a really weird reason. I spent the last few weeks watching compilation videos just like you describe except they are of military personnel returning home <they are awesome and sweet, but really scary> because I need the emotional lift, but these videos weren't meant to be wildly shared. They contain identifying information which could be very dangerous to our armed forces. I think they should be taken down, honestly, but that's not my bailiwick. The owners of the content intended them to seen where they were placed <otherwise they would have placed them on other platforms themselves>. If I understand what you are doing correctly, you are violating their express intentions for your own benefit.
