This script will output two parameters: po_token and visitor_data. Needed for passing YouTube checks in Invidious.
## What's po_token
po_token known as Proof of Origin Token. This is an attestation token generated by a complex anti bot verification system created by Google named BotGuard/DroidGuard. It is used to confirm that the request is coming from a genuine device.
These identity tokens (po_token and visitor_data) generated using this tool will make your entire YouTube session more easily traceable by YouTube because it is tied to a unique identifier.
## Requirement(s)
- Run the script on the same public IP address as the Invidious server. Not necessarily the same machine, just the same public IP address.
