AFAIK there is nothing illegal about YouTube frontend sites.

While they may in some way violate Google TOS, that is not a legal matter.



In the United States violating the TOS of a web site is technically a criminal offense under the CFAA, although the government is choosing currently not to prosecute most of these offenses[0]; but beware as that is simply a policy that can be ignored at any time it is useful.
