Site is banned - on a local instance of encoder

[VWarte]

Hi,

I need some clarification on the privacy policy of AVideo and the AVideo-Encoder.

I run my own instance of AVideo and my own instance of AVideo-Encoder on local hardware. In the last days, I wasn't able to access my locally run AVideo-Encoder instance because "Your site is banned".

Yes, my site is on the blacklist now ( https://search.youphptube.com/blackListed ), and yes, I've read what content is not supported by AVideo. But the question here has a global character, since both Streamer and Encoder aren't accessible by the public, there should have been no way to even review what content was being used here.

That raises the question, how is that even possible? Does AVideo or AVideo-Encoder has a callback function or a backdoor, that exposes private content without user's knowledge to WWBN? Or is there some kind of a local "crawler" that has a certain word-blacklist?

If I would host an AVideo-Stream-Site and AVideo-Encoder-Site for corporate usage, with content that is only meant to be seen internally by employees, would the content still be exposed to WWBN, just to "validate" it's not "porn" or similar?

Hi
Porn contents are forbidden in all cases

This is absolutely irrelevant in this case.

The question is, how are you able to VERIFY what content is being used on a PRIVATELY HOSTED site, that runs on a LOCAL SERVER, that is NOT ACCESSIBLE BY THE PUBLIC?

Can you confirm, that either AVideo or AVideo-Encoder has a build in BACKDOOR/FUNCTION, that exposes private content to unauthorized parties/groups to test if the content is forbidden or not?

I am having issues as well, (One of the reasons for trying to break away from youtube copy trolls) I can not build a server just for some 3rd party to decide what I can host and encode on my own hardware, If you wish to not provide additional details, perhaps it is time to go closed source with your program.

You understand blocking people for simply asking a very legit polite question is really starting to look bad on you? What is so difficult in confirming a simple question? "that either AVideo or AVideo-Encoder has a build in BACKDOOR/FUNCTION, that exposes private content to unauthorized parties/groups"? I understand you may have personal issues with some content. But that should not be up to WWBN to determine what that content can consist of on someones private server. If this is indeed the behaviour of this script. It is very snoopy for an open source project. And agree that it may not belong here. You may make your project closed sourced and internally host "youtube" like sites under your rather unusual conditions for who ever would go for that its your business and if they want to pay $$. But not here in the open source world. I just spend over 100 dollars on your "premium" plugins And deserve to know what is going on with this script. If you feel we are targeting you or attacking you for some reason. Then would it not be more simple to just go out and say or confirm that if we run our own encoder instance on our own server then there is no third party(WWBN) acting as admin on our private server content. I think it is a rather fair and simple question that does not deserve to get a ban just for asking. All this beating around the bush of not answering the direct question makes privacy a concern for sure for who ever runs this script. Thanks.

Again, Porn content is forbidden, and I am not willing to help you guys
