Les autorisations suivantes sont requises pour xxxxxx:

Savoir qui vous êtes sur Google.

Google owns YouTube, so it's a pretty safe assumption on Google's end that it's OK to share account information with YouTube. So there's no authorization window on YouTube.

But Google doesn't own your application, so before sharing account information with your application Google needs to warn the user and make sure the user opts-in to authorize your application. So there's a permissions window before granting account access when your app implements the oauth flow.
