YTcensorTest

Checks for search result censorship on YouTube by running a search query and reporting the results. Compare with other queries/locations/etc.

This is currently a very quick and dirty script to help Louder with Crowder. This can be flushed out a fair bit.

Todo:

• Take search parameter as argument
• Store result items as objects, especially so that we can...
• ...Output to a CSV or other useful formats
• Do more than 1 page of search. (We currently get just 19 results.)

Ideally we would set this up in some docker container or something and phone home with results, then spin up a bunch of containers globally and compare results
