Back in my college days, we used to have YouTube blocked during the day by the IT department. This was a time when YouTube used flash for the main player. I figured out that YT embeds still worked because they used the HTML5 player instead. So I coded up a small extension which switched to HTML5 player all the time. Solved a real problem for tons of people. :)
