Comment (by dd32):

 Instead of using WordPress test accounts, could we instead fall back onto
 using a video uploaded by the embed company instead?

 For example, for Vimeo, anything from `Vimeo Staff`
 https://vimeo.com/staff or the test video from
 https://player.vimeo.com/embed should be safe to use going forward.

 Having official WordPress accounts for every embed platform is not going
 to be viable from a management perspective IMHO, and having accounts
 everywhere with only a single W logo video doesn't lead to a super great
 experience when it ends up in search results.

 Where WordPress does have a use for the service (Such as Youtube) using
 one of our uploads such as a [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=72xdCU__XCk
 release video] does make sense though.
