If you'd like to download copyright-protected content, you should ask for permission from the copyright holder. To make a long story short, downloading copyright-free content is not illegal in any way, shape, or form. To an extent, copyright law in many countries permits downloading copyright-protected content for personal use, for instance, Canada and EU member states. However, YouTube does not enforce this policy because it'd be practically impossible for them to win from a legal standpoint. Technically, YouTube only allows you to download videos for which they've expressly provided that option. You shall not copy, reproduce, distribute, transmit, broadcast, display, sell, license, or otherwise exploit any content for any other purposes without the prior written consent of YouTube or the respective licensors of the content. You shall not download any content unless you see a 'download' or similar link displayed by YouTube on the Service for that content. Here's what YouTube's TOS states specifically: However, downloading videos is legal for personal use or under the fair use provision in most countries. YouTube specifies in their Terms of Service that you shouldn't download content by any other means than their download-button. YouTube was also fined $136 million for collecting personal data without consent. They've previously faced lawsuits in the UK for running highly targeted ads to 'influence vulnerable young minds'. YouTube has a spotty track record when it comes to privacy. When you watch a YouTube video, both the owner and YouTube can access information regarding what parts of the video you watched, on what device you watched it, and tie this information to your account if you're logged in. ![]()
