DMCA takedown of github page youtube-dl - Why?
Hi NMGLUG folks, Does anyone know what's going on with this?' https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/blob/master/README.md#readme That's the link I use frequently as a reference for explanations and for command flags, options, arguments, whatever. I visited the page today, but I saw Repository unavailable due to DMCA takedown. Why would DMCA take down a help page on github? Does anyone have any insight about this?' Thanks, LeRoy -- I am the Love of God, no matter what. LeRoy Diener 213-LEROYIZ 213-537-6949 www.leroydiener.com/

https://github.blog/2020-11-16-standing-up-for-developers-youtube-dl-is-back... Brought again to our attention via https://pluralistic.net/2020/11/16/pill-mills/#yt-dl Who hails this as the "best possible outcome" of which I'm still somewhat skeptical. Oh and here's the HN link for bkuhn's modest proposal post above: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25088961 -- sam
