Hi Sam,

I'd like to make a note about using some more privacy-friendly streaming 
platform.

When I tried to watch the streams, instead of showing the video, youtube 
presented me with a GDPR dialog.

While it was glitched and unskippable for me, just the fact that Google made it 
non-optional shows their disregard for my privacy (and, IMO, the letter of law, 
which mandates opt-in). Unfortunately, I wasn't able to evaluate the dialog's 
contents due to the glitch, but online reports suggest they are similarly 
ignorant. All in all, I only access youtube via youtube-dl any more, and that 
doesn't support streaming.

When attending Akademy 2 weeks ago, they had a setup based on BigBlueButton 
that worked well without that sort of issues.

Cheers,
Dorota
