how is an HLS playlist abuse?
1 comments

It's abuse when it's being used to coordinate pirate video streams -- which, when a new user creates a HLS playlist as their very first action, is the most likely possibility.
I agree, their actions are totally justified. lets just instantly ban these accounts without even a warning email. great idea.
