Can you access those downloads?


Yes, there is a downloads button in the app to see your downloaded videos.

I'm pretty sure they meant, can the videos be accessed as files in the filesystem, which to my knowledge they cannot.

Shit? Illegal? It's literally your right on videos like <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JSEJApMIrLU>. Expand the description and see at the bottom: license is set to creative commons. The copyright holder permits everyone to remix the video but youtube still does not show a button for you to actually make use of that

You need to breach the terms of service (use a downloader) to exercise the rights of the content license that youtube supports


As the other sister comment said. I was replying to you saying YouTube has downloading in a thread about file access. I use the YouTube premium offline access, it’s nice but I only have premium for mobile background.
