The software specifically asked me to report this, so I'll skip the questionnaire bit:

Some context: On the first attempt, it wanted me to login (This video is only available for registered users. Use --username and --password or --netrc to provide account credentials., so I added my FB credentials). The login seems to have worked and my browser facebook session complained that »You don't usually log in from this browser, so we want to make sure it was you.« Also, the video is special, in that Facebook asks me in the browser session to »uncover« it, because »This video may show violent or graphic content.«
