Could you build this?

Partial While basic scrapers are simple to code, reliable scraping of YouTube comments, videos, and channels at scale requires complex anti-bot evasion, rotating residential proxy infrastructure, and reverse-engineering private endpoints.

What it would actually take: Building robust scrapers requires Playwright/Puppeteer with stealth plugins or reverse-engineered internal YouTube protobuf APIs. The hard part is managing large pools of residential rotating proxies, solving CAPTCHAs, handling rate limits, and building fault-tolerant queue workers (e.g., Celery/BullMQ with Redis) that dynamically adapt when YouTube updates its layout and anti-scraping defenses.
