Comment (by paapst):

 Not sure that the YouTube-Nocookie solution actually helps with GDPR
 compliance. I know that @rogierlankhorst has written an article about it a
 while ago : https://complianz.io/youtube-and-the-gdpr-how-to-embed-
 youtube-on-your-site/ The user apparently still gets YouTube cookies as
 soon as they hit the play button.
