Hello,
For everyone trying to use the Youtube module, it seems that the library waybackpy uses the "CDX" endpoint of the Wayback Machine when GHunt is searching for Youtube channels snapshots, and since a few days, this CDX endpoint is blocking the youtube.com domain when searching through it.

Example of query : http://web.archive.org/cdx/search/cdx?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fchannel%2FUC5ORlawyTOeKjjGc5d0p3MQ&from=20140101000000&to=20191231000000&showResumeKey=true&resolveRevisits=true

Which gives :

org.archive.util.io.RuntimeIOException: org.archive.wayback.exception.AdministrativeAccessControlException:
Blocked Site Error

I am not aware of a solution, workaround or whatever for the moment, and I am very occupied in the next weeks, so you shouldn't use this module for now, and all the GHunt users will be thankful if you can provide a good solution, even more if that's a Pull Request.

PS : You can always use the web interface of the Wayback Machine to get snapshots of Youtube channels.

Love on you all.
