Exported is a sort of context neutral reuse, with an OER it is any use
you feel like doing under the license.
I may plausibly just want the youtube page and nothing else, and then to
get other feeds as well.
If I have something which uses a key I basically take a punt on how much
it will be used and how techie the reusers are.
The phoning home makes sense, would make setting up a server easier as
well (what would stop someone creating a youtube page is the key wasn't
set up?)
