classified as cdn · 2

This page aggregates measured, corroborated evidence: donors' iPhones recorded apps contacting this domain, every claim below was reported by separate accepted donations and published under a human verdict (later rows for an approved app inherit its verdict). A contact is a measurement, not an accusation — it does not show what data was sent.

What our research panel found AI-drafted · human-reviewed

We ask several independent AI models the same question and publish their answers separately — cross-vendor agreement is evidence against fabrication, and disagreement is worth seeing. 3 of 3 models answered, overall confidence high. A human reviewed this domain's claims before anything here published.

Anthropic Claude — cdn

googlevideo.com is Google's own video content-delivery infrastructure; hostnames of the form rr1---sn-*.googlevideo.com are YouTube media edge caches, so this is first-party CDN traffic for streaming video rather than a third-party tracker. Serving the app's core content is expected and covered by the app's own extensive collection disclosures, so nothing here implies an undeclared data flow.

OpenAI — cdn

The googlevideo.com hostname is commonly used to deliver YouTube video content and appears to be a Google-controlled content-delivery endpoint. The app's label declares extensive collection categories, and the hostname alone does not establish an undeclared data flow.

Google Gemini — cdn

googlevideo.com is Google's dedicated infrastructure for serving YouTube video streams, operating as a first-party content delivery network (CDN). Delivering core video content to the user is standard functional operation and does not constitute undisclosed data collection.

Think something here is wrong?

Evidence and research improve when people push back. Tell us what to re-check — a misattributed domain, an outdated classification, a claim about your own app — and a human will review it. Responses can take up to 30 days.

If you leave an email it is encrypted at rest and opened only to answer you — never shared, never used for anything else. It is erased 30 days after we resolve this (or 180 days if it is still open) without you asking, and you can erase it sooner at any time; either way your correction stays, anonymously. Leave it blank and your request is fully anonymous from the start (we store no IP address either way).
