I want to post videos here but I don't want to do it so as though the hits will show up as coming from this website on the page itself. Can anyone advise?

Cheers.

I'm not sure if that's even possible.

Wait, I am confused....you don't want it to show that it is you posting?

If it's that, just make a separate account.

No, that's not it. I don't want to show that I am posting a video of theirs to WP. The account itself doesn't bother me.

*Do you want to post it for the sound or for the sights or for both?

If you want to post just like a song or something just with sound, there are ways to download videos into mp3's and you could make it into a new video.

Wouldn't they see that it was theirs even if it was anonymous?

No, because I'm thinking that if it went through an anonymising server, they'd see that rather than WP.

I mean, would you rather that the local division of the SS Führer Nazi Kristallnacht Anschluss Anti-Israel Brigade saw links to a particularly virulent video you'd posted here?

(N.B.: I'm not going to post any Nazi videos here but that serves as an extreme example for the kind of thing I'm really talking about here.)
