Yes, I remembered observing a similar issue with local broadcasting service in
Québec Canada. Reportedly it's using The Platform framework with a Wowsa
server. Basically it checks that cookies obtained when loading the web page are
present when downloading the playlist (and also the fragments (though cross
domain here)) as a best effort to prevent external player from playing the
stream (hence preventing adds skip). I then forgot to file it, as this service
has been blocked since for non Apple devices.
