YouTube is blocked in Via to avoid the server-side resource usage of proxying video. To enable YouTube embeds to work we'd need to find a way to either avoid proxying the video player and content, while proxying the rest of the page, or significantly reduce the overhead of proxying. Aside from legitimate use of YouTube, I think in the past we have also had to contend with people using the Via proxy as a way to get around YouTube being blocked in certain places. In fact I think that might have been made the main issue.
