I don't quite get it. Are things like #newpipe or #invidious legal or not? Wouldn't #YouTube do everything to stop such services?

Depends on your country and how it handles copyright and DRM, but being illegal doesn't necessarily mean it's immoral. The mere concept of watching or downloading YouTube videos through an alternative client certainly does not keep me up at night with guilt.

This is definitely true. Though I am yet to see a case like this being tried in a different country and YouTubes own terms of service says any disputes will be tried in the US (I think California?). So I think YouTube may not even be able to sue in a different country even if they wanted to since they are also bound by their terms of service.
