Good news, I figured out how to download videos from ok.ru in the original HD quality; as a result, I can upload parts of the Telesport broadcasts on youtube without any losses on re-coding. I also wrote a script that monitors the site and starts downloading the video once 1080p is ready (the hosting uses the incremental processing, like youtube). So even if the video becomes available in the middle of a night, by the next morning I will already have a full 20-GB video.
I also created a new channel where I plan to post new translations. There is also a separate playlist with untranslated videos, for which Russian speakers can add their own translations (for that, you need to click "Add subtitles/CC" in the player), but these untranslated videos are unlisted, which means that they will not appear in the feed and in subscribers' notifications. I will try to be careful and not to be banned, but I will also save all the videos (as long as I have free space on my disk) and the subtitles, just in case.
Meanwhile, you can already watch the skatings of Polina Tsurskaya, Carolina Kostner and Satoko Miyahara with Yulya's translated comments. After Satoko, the broadcast was interrupted abruptly, so those who didn't have a backup channel had to watch the black screen instead of Evgenia Medvedeva.
I've heard of many occasions when an automatic appeal led to an automatic permaban.
I really hope things have changed since then.
It doesn't work like that. The copyright subsystem doesn't care about visibility of your videos, it will shove its green hairy tentacles all over your private channel in any case, and will ban you once it decides that you don't deserve to exist in its universe.
In 30 years or so its power may spread to our Universe too, that's why after Snowden's leak I stopped using Gmail and Google search (and Windows too).
