What does "caught" mean in this context?

If you can't use the site without registering, it probably isn't a secret that you can't use the site without registering.

I can see using a phrase like 'called out' or 'called on their bullshit' or whatever, but I don't see how they were 'caught'.

Looks like it still requires a signup, but lets you watch a few streams before it blocks you with the signup modal.

what do you mean were? I cant watch anything without creating account.
