Parsing json of video metadata and executing js code of decryption are
different, just like parsing static html and executing js are different,
just like read and eval in a repl are different. I think that's pretty
clear. Whether the decryption code is nonfree is a different matter,
and I cannot answer without seeing the decryption code.
