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-delivery infrastructure, and the 'rr5---sn-...' hostname pattern is characteristic of YouTube's media edge servers, so this is first-party content delivery by the app's own publisher rather than a third-party tracker. Streaming video from the publisher's own CDN is core app functionality and does not imply a data flow beyond the app's already extensive declared collection.
OpenAI — cdn
googlevideo.com is commonly used to deliver YouTube video content, and this hostname appears to be a Google video-delivery endpoint. The declared label covers extensive relevant data categories, so the contact alone does not show an undisclosed data flow.
Google Gemini — cdn
googlevideo.com is Google's content delivery network infrastructure used to stream video content to YouTube users. This represents standard first-party CDN traffic necessary for core app functionality.
