@yikaii You can fetch several endpoints even if you don't own the channel (for example videos, comments, likes and dislikes, playlists, etc...). Endpoints that involve private data and elevated privileges (uploads, content management and community moderation) are protected through a Json Web Token that you can aquire from a OAuth permission. Essentially you could make a website, make users link their Google account to your website and fetch protected API endpoints using the authorized token. It's 100% secured, that's what OAuth was designed for (by Google engineers btw). Although you don't need any of that because like I said the dislikes are not protected endpoints.
