Summary #

KhanAcademy.org uses YouTube to host their videos. However, they also have these videos hosted elsewhere that are accessed automatically when YouTube is unavailable, such as when it is blocked.

To allow KhanAcademy to play videos off of their own servers, as opposed to YouTube’s, you simply need to allow a handful of websites.
