mdking Posted April 30, 2015 Posted April 30, 2015 Morning all, Hopefully someone will be able to shed some light on this subject. Filtering comments within YouTube (Using the IPad App or Safari). Can this be done? Has anyone successfully done this? Thanks Matt
caffrey Posted April 30, 2015 Posted April 30, 2015 I believe it can be done under Guardian » Content modification » Content modifications, however I think this needs HTTPS inspection to work
Sylv3r Posted April 30, 2015 Posted April 30, 2015 Should be possible to do via Safari - whether the comments are hidden via the YouTube app I am not sure.
mdking Posted May 5, 2015 Author Posted May 5, 2015 Thanks all for the replies. I seem to be struggling with sorting this out. I have spoken to Smooth-wall. The response I have had back wasn't very positive.
Sylv3r Posted May 5, 2015 Posted May 5, 2015 I'll test ours tomorrow. The comments defiantly aren't shown on our PC's via Chrome and IE. I must admit I haven't tested the iPads. Will let you know. 1

OB1 Posted May 6, 2015 Posted May 6, 2015 We can't apply content modifications to the YouTube App unfortunately. Comment removal works on the mobile site through Safari and Chrome, but you need to have Decrypt and Inspect enabled to apply it (and the Smoothwall's certificate installed as a root CA). Decrypt and inspect breaks the app because it won't accept the Smoothwall's certificate. HTH.

We have this enabled and deployed the CA cert to the Ipad. However, this caused problems for other applications. I presume it was trying to Decrypt and Inspect these too. I have had many phone calls regarding this with smooth-wall, every-time we have never got it to work correctly... OB, if you would like my details I can PM them to you.
OB1 Posted May 6, 2015 Posted May 6, 2015 Ah yes. Apps tend to use their own certificates, sometimes they don't understand proxies and they definitely don't like being man-in-the-middled. A lot of them don't send Server Name Indication headers either, so we have to do funky stuff™ to work out what the traffic is before we can decide what to do with it. PM me which apps you're using and I'll try and advise you.
