Dear all,

I want to listen to an IETF interim meeting recording.
Note: in this case, an NMOP interim meeting to create the meeting minutes.

So I am logged in the datatracker, I follow the link from https://datatracker.ietf.org/wg/nmop/meetings/ and click on the Meetecho session recording, which leads to the ietf.org site, specifically https://meetecho-player.ietf.org/playout/?session=IETF-NMOP-20250521-1400 And now, I received the message that I must have a Google account to view this video: "Sign in to confirm you’re not a bot"

I don't believe this is right to force me to sign me into YouTube in order to see IETF-related content.
Am I the only thinking along those lines?

Hi Benoit - where did you see something asking you to sign into youtube? The link at https://meetecho-player.ietf.org/playout/?session=IETF-NMOP-20250521-1400 makes no such challenge. (Even version hosted at youtube doesn't require login).
From my observations, I "believe" it's a slow transition, kind of Canary release (https://blog.opsramp.com/canary-deployments) It was working for me without login on Firefox till a few weeks ago on any youtube videos, then suddenly I received "login required" Then I switched to Chrome: it was working for some time, then now "login required" So I "believe" it's a question of time for you, your tools, your location, your <whatever>.

Regards, Benoit
