When you use invidio.us, the website automatically embeds mp4s and webms and plays them with your browser's built in media player. All that google could log is a request with your IP. No proprietary google javascript is run on your computer, And when i reviewed the requests made to googlevideo in firefox's inspector it doesn't even send headers or cookies.
As far as I know invidio.us is 100% freesoftware and botnet free.
Feel free to correct me if I was wrong about anything though.
