GitHub shuts youtube-dl down
The Recording Industry Association of America has filed a DMCA claim against youtube-dl
, a noteworthy Linux command line tool used to permanently download YouTube videos locally. The DMCA claims that “the clear purpose” of this application is to:
- circumvent the technological protection measures used by authorized streaming services such as YouTube, and
- reproduce and distribute music videos and sound recordings owned by our member companies without authorization for such use

In the complaint, it lists three songs:
- Icona Pop – I Love It (feat. Charli XCX) [Official Video]
- Justin Timberlake – Tunnel Vision (Explicit)
- Taylor Swift – Shake it Off
But the question is, how many people savvy enough to use Linux and acquire youtube-dl
in the first place are also pedestrian enough to pirate Justin Timberlake songs that they can listen to for free anyway? Out of all seven billion people on planet Earth, I imagine under a dozen people are really that pleb. In all likelihood, this has basically nothing to do with wanting to suppress piracy of music you can listen to for free, and everything to do with wanting to control the political narrative during America’s election season by social media censorship. After all, Election Day is less than a fortnight away. Considering this tool has been up for years now without issue, Occam’s razor leads directly toward the explanation that piracy of the freely viewable is a pretext, but not the actual reason.
So what can be done about politically-motivated GitHub censorship? Fortunately, GitHub and Git are not the same thing; Git is a version control program and GitHub is merely a Git host. There are many free and cheap Git hosts. Here are a few of them:
Additionally, if you feel like starting your own Git host, there is more than open source Git hosting program available free for download:
- Gitea
- GitLab Server
- Raw Git Server (this is the least recommended method)
It’s very unlikely that we have seen the last of youtube-dl
, but this is another iteration of the lesson to be wary of Big Tech. If you have a repository hosted on GitHub that you suspect might be even vaguely controversial, it might be a good idea to move that repository elsewhere or start your own host for it, as Pleroma has.
EVERYONE REMAIN CALM

should have used gitlab from the beginning
Why would gitlab change anything? They still have to comply to DMCA takedowns.
not owned by microshit
when people say "use gitlab" they mean "host your own gitlab instance"
if you host it outside the US you can tell tell DMCA jews to kiss your ass
Fair enough.
>if you host it outside the US you can tell tell DMCA jews to kiss your ass
No you cant because they will go the layer above, up to the hoster/provider.
And he WILL comply.
>>if you host it
>they will go to the hoster
Let them come. If they finally invade China, yt-dl will be the least of our problems, anon.
>If they finally invade China
What China has to do with it?
If I host it on my own fucking server, why do you think it will physically be on soil the US can send their armies?
there are many providers that don't give a fuck about DMCAs, you just have to know them. can be a bit more expensive than usual but it's worth it
>there are many providers that don't give a fuck about DMCAs
Yeah, like what? Bold statements, impress me?
>why do you think it will physically be on soil the US
Why does it matter which soil it is, retard?
>If I host it on my own fucking server
Host WHERE, retard? What server? Are you gonna get internet out of thin air? No, you go to any of the providers. ALL of the providers respect DMCA because DMCA is international. Even Russia.
And no, whatever that retard was talking about China- you cant just get hosting in China, that is impossible. You need to be in China and be on good score to have a hosting platform there. Dumbfuck
if what you are saying is true, how do pirate sites exist?
ps: you can literally do what the fuck you want on the internet if you pick the right hoster
>if what you are saying is true, how do pirate sites exist?
Have you noticed these sites migrate often?
just for you, anon

>DMCA is international
Lmfao
You burgers are so fucking stupid.
Yes it is, DMCA is respected in most of the countires on the west, there are special tie ins with local versions of DMCA like in EU, for example.
You know, it takes 5s to open wiki page to read up about it?
Host in my fucking /hsg/ retard. Now you're being less retard and saying they'll come after the ISP, which makes more sense, but after me they won't come. They can't raid my front door where I live, dumbass. US is not world police.
t. larping as a citizen of a non US ally, say ahmed.
Okay, sure.They will come to ISP and he will remove your shit and ban your ass. What;s next? Where you gonna host it? Swap ISP? Sure, how long until you are out of options?
I live in Russia, I read the news about dmca removals all the time.
In fact, I'm gonna humor you, but there is a easier way to get shit you dont want to be removed in Russia - just pay for it. Corruprion here is as high as 101% coverage, it is easier to pay to get anything done than use legal system kek
>They will come to ISP and he will remove your shit and ban your ass.
1) they will not
2) see
Yes they will
prove it
I dont have to prove anything, you have to prove your Iceland ISP wont rspect DMCA and ignore the claim.
Because I know for a fact it is respected across all EU.
okay I'll make it easy for you
here's a hoster that claims to ignore DMCA https://aminserve.com/switzerland-vps
since all isps respect dmca as you say it should be very simple for you to prove

>j-just google the proof urself

>realized he was told
>instant ad hominem
that's not even an ad hominem
can you do anything correctly retard
ps: switzerland is not even in the EU
Like I said, ISP was your first non retarded argument, retard. Stop raging on the internet and go do somethng else that makes you happier, burgerlander. You are not world police and the world doesn't care about burger laws and burger problems. We pirate your shit daily.
>point a flaw in the argument
>he goes on autistic ad hominem reee and tries to move golapost
Have you, uhh, considering to try to counter my argument instead?
I mean, you can't because you know it is true, but it would look more honorable.
I'm not countering your argument. I'm conceding it to you. Are you so blind with rage from flamewarring everyday that you fail to understand this? Again, go do something more productive with your time. Or don't, I don't care. You're the one getting stressed and reducing your lifespan.
>I live in Russia, I read the news about dmca removals all the time.
Why lie on the internet, my overweight friend?
Just ask rutracker or any other download site what they thing of DMCA.
rutracker is literally blocked in russia lmao
Rutracker respects DMCA, they remove that content. Read their rules.
They were banned in Russia by the court so they moved into EU.

What the fuck is this?
Universal Bypass got sued for skipping ad links from an ad link site, code is still up even though the guy said he was going to give up the fight, so not sure in what way he meant that
So it begins
What now?
Youtube already banned me for downloading too much with youtube-dl.
Nothing of value was lost.
Don't download 3+ channels in one go. Idk why youtube-dl doesn't have a way to specify time between requests.
Too late.
really? what exactly does a youtube ban look like, was it your account or your entire IP?
You get 429 HTTP error responses.
thats not a ban retard
temp ban, retard. you'll have to try REALLY hard to get banned by google
still not a ban
>HTTP 429 Too Many Requests
you literally can't get banned by google
Just use your account's cookies.
>you'll have to try REALLY hard to get banned by google
what do I have to do to get banned by google? I don't want to have to deal with their shit anymore.
I would also like to know how I can get google to permanently ban me from all of their spyware
Can one get banned and out of their spynet by either:
a) being yuropean and using get out of spynet free euro law card; or
b) being chink and being instead on ccp spynet which doesn't share data with murican spynet?
Use YouTube vanced with your real account
for me getting an FBI subpoena on my gmail worked
just export the cookie from a browser
You can get banned from Google. And if you do get banned it's game over. Automated systems ban all the accounts the initially banned one was ever logges in with. You also cannot get the account back unless you get a first page >500 points HN thread awaking some onions slurping fag redesigning a logo for the seventh time that month. Signing up a new one is also a lottery and a game against a company that has the capabilities to know everything about you and siphons such information in their integral automated detection systems. This comes from a second account of somebody I know who had to just give up on Google. Reason for the ban? I don't know, he didn't know either.
is that an account ban or IP ban. I'm talking about IP bans
Multiple account ban and ban for all accounts created after. Didn't use VPNs and probably had same cookies when first made a new one so they probably busted it from that. There's a lot of cases like this. Sure, you just can avoid signing up again and use their malware services without an account, but the statement that getting banned from google is wrong. If you meant to say complete denial of service (so you can't even search or load jewtube) then I don't know about it but I believe you're right and would be pretty fucking hard for that to happen to an user
it's not that hard
here are a few ways
use captcha busters
use a lot of Google dork searches from the same ip
block ads excessively on a Google account
>block ads excessively on a Google account
how true is this?
I use yt vanced and use ublock origin
They just banned me from using youtube-dl. I can watch on youtube.com without issues but no longer download. They detect everything.
Forgot to mention: days after I downloaded all the videos from that specific channel, the owner decided to fuck off and delete the entire channel. So glad I got them all saved and it was worth it in hindsight.
just clear your cache
youtube-dl --rm-cache
you fucking moron
howmany vids do I have to download before they ban me? I want to save around 1000 vids before youtube goes full DRM
>banned
youtube-dl --rm-cache
was this an ip ban?
also, was it permanent?
Is there a public git host in Russia?
Mother Russia always saves her children

>git clone

they did also take down the iptv-org repository a few weeks ago, and it's not coming back, but lots of mirrors still exists. they should have known better not to host the page specific download plugins in the same repository as the core app

Emulators are next right
Emulators made by reverse engineering have been ruled out to be legal.
By the same logic you could say that recording your screen has been ruled to be legal
All it takes is nintendo to be in a bad day for retroarch, dolphin and yuzu all go down at the same time
No it's because emulation has already been tries in court
No? Emulating is reverse engineering which is explicitly protected by law (in the US and probably most countries in the world). No bad day Nintendo can have would change that.
Recording the screen is legal. Redistributing copyrighted material that may happen to appear on the screen is not.
The issue with youtube-dl wasn't that can download youtube videos, but that it implemented a method to decode a particular algorithm youtube uses.
> decode a particular algorithm youtube uses.
>it implemented a method to decode a particular algorithm youtube uses
to obscure the url of the actual video. Nothing to do with copyrighted material.
That is not it. Read the DMCA notice. It used youtube examples in the atomated tests.
https://github.com/github/dmca/blob/master/2020/10/2020-10-23-RIAA.md
>The clear purpose of this source code is to (i) circumvent the technological protection measures used by authorized streaming services such as YouTube, and (ii) reproduce and distribute music videos and sound recordings owned by our member companies without authorization for such use.
>We also note that the source code prominently includes as sample uses
The examples are a secondary reason if they're at all.
That is their understanding, you have to provide evidence in DMCA's claims. The links are the "evidence".
Come on anon read the link. A few paragraphs below clearly states the repo's violation is anticircumvention. And the court decisions mentioned are about technical measures. Below they even cite the source code itself.
That is not the source code, that is the README. It is a documentation file and you can look it up on the repos that are still up, it doesn't mention a "rolling cipher" anywhere. That is the last place such a thing would be mentioned, since it is a end user doc.
What they did is common of the subhuman breed that are lawyers, you mention something that is somewhat accurate (the links) then add a bunch of vague BS to confuse people and waste their time.
>trivial string manipulations is a cipher
I would like to see what that looks like, most likely is just some convenient format or something.
even rot13 can be considered a "technological measure preventing access to content" and if the law bans circumvention that good luck in court
you've missed the point
all videos are downloadable, but not all are trivially downloadable
In any case the circumvention part doesn't apply either. Specifically YT rearranges the characters in the URL of the real resource and they provide you with the code to recovery the original. What ytdl does in download the rearranged URL, the JS code and then runs this code (itself) to recover the original URL. If ytdl is considered illegal then every JS interpreter is illegal as well as it can run YT's code.
https://www.youtube.com/s/player/4a1799bd/player_ias.vflset/en_US/base.js
Yeah, hard to claim that is a cipher.
See this. It is not a cipher and yt themselves provide the instructions on how to decode the format (it isn't obfuscated).
a dictionary definition disagrees with you and a court will too
and no including instructions does not make it not a cipher
any browser can crack the "cipher" and youtube-dl is just a browser without a graphical user interface. checkmate
>dictionary definition disagrees with you
> a method of transforming a text in order to conceal its meaning
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/cipher
How are you concealing it's meaning if you tell people how to revert it?
>and a court will too
[citation needed]
It'1s conceilling from one party, i.e. whoever wants to use it against the TOS, but it should be recoverable by the legitimate party communicating with the server (i.e. the js engine from a major browser runnning their website and following all their cuntermeasures).
so what if I open a real browser with selenium and save the video files it plays?
i could do that manually too, maybe the network monitor is illegal...
I have no idea, I was just saying your dictionary definition doesn't imply the concealed text should be unrecoverable. A write-only cypher is useless.
use headless chrome from command line is much more efficient
And rereading the DMCA, it appears recording the screen isn't legal either if the media is copyrighted.
You're allowed to make copies of anything you own (copyrighted or not) for your own personal use. This is settled law.
https://copyright.unimelb.edu.au/information/what-is-copyright/personal-use
Oh, good. That's what I was remembering too. That means their second claim is null.
>it appears recording the screen isn't legal either if the media is copyrighted.
Fucking hell, it's so hilariously dumb how pathetic that is.
first youtube's new layout completely btfo's non-bloat web browsers from using the site and now this shit
WHAT THE F-
WHAT DO WE DO NOW BROS????? WHAT HAPPENS NEXT????? THIS IS AN ATTACK AGAINST PRIVACY AND FREEDOM!!!!

dude if you have it installed its on your machine. it's written in python. chill out
THE ONE I GOT IS 2020.09.14 NOT 2020.09.20(LATEST)
see:
Same I pulled on Sep 19th. The only reason I pull the repo is because they still haven't merged my pull request after 6 months. Jesus christ all I did was make youtube-dl embed thumbnails for mkv.
FUCK WHERE I'LL GET WINTODDLER VERSION NOW
HOLY FUCK
I was just checking the docs, refreshed the page and it's fucking GONE
they took down yt-dl because of examples???
Who has the most recent commit?
The funny thing is that they are asking to ban it because it CAN be used to obtain copyrighted audio. Going by that logic I would have to disable all my video and audio playback devices because I may or may not be using some recording device. Absolute cancer. Also fuck jews as always.
shithub is not doing anything about it except giving in like the turbocucks they are
"I can run people over with this car"
"I can stab someone with this fork"
"I can make poison with common kitchen ingredients
Hmph. It happens, arrest those that do.
"I can pirate music with this script"
HOLY SHIT BAN THIS SICK FILTH HOW DARE YOU THIS SHOULD BE ILLEGAL YOU FUCKING CYBERTERRORIST
God I wish the RIAA would fucking die already. Absolute leeches.
>disable all my video and audio playback devices
dont give them ideas
soon enough youtube will have DRM
>NOOOOOOOOOOO YOU CAN'T JUST SAVE MEDIA SERVED TO YOU
so does this have any legal weight whatsoever or is it the just RIAA getting pissy
It doesn't, it's an invalid DMCA.
But it doesn't matter because US laws are fucked. If you have enough money you can DMCA anything you want.
WHAT HAPPENS NEXT???? WHERE DO WE GO NOW?????

In hindsight, having the README examples point to RIAA shit was a bad idea. There are plenty of CC-licensed shit on the site that could have been used instead.
Yeah they should have just used Big Buck Bunny like everyone else.

youtube-dl was almost dead some months ago, maybe it needed this push.
The best thing about git is its decentralization. You can just easily move your repos off GitHub to another server.
NO
can YouTube-dl be hosted on VLC git?
*RIAA shuts down vlc*
nothing personnel, kid
wtf, I love RIAA now
VLC develops x264; I cannot imagine giving any fucks about youtube-dl.
there's a *bit* of a difference between an encoder and a program that can download copyrighted media
all media and content is automatically copyrighted. this is nonsense
*RIAA bans monitors because they can be used to view pirated content*
Has the RIAA paid a single penny to a single artist? Ever?
So what does this mean? I have it installed on my computer and ised it this morning. Does that mean I can still use it but can never install it again on future devices?
No updates until they work around this
>but can never install it again on future devices?
You can install it on as many devices you want as long as you have your files
It needs to be updated and maintained though, youtube constantly changes shit around to where youtube-dl stops working and has to be updated. They have to host it somewhere or it will be useless in like a month
It's already been more than a month since the last stable release and it still works fine, panicbot
mfw they were just waiting for this to launch the breaking update
They lost all issues and metadata. When will people realize you need some kind of federated mirrored or something. Hosting your own instance doesn't solve that, or the issue of contributor friction from having to create multiple accounts and workflows.
>tfw they'll never merge my feature request
they can get them back as soon as they do a counter notice to github
but you're right that they should have backups
Backups are useless because it's deeply tied to GH. I was trying to say there isn't a real solution for that afaik. It should work on all platforms and git hosts. Would just require some form of authorization on each of course but other than that it's a matter of having a solid protocol for metadata and workflows like merge/requests/milestones/tags.

how exactly was this source code distributing anything?
Dumb enough to put copyrighted material on the README so you can technically download it from the text.
>This source code allows you to download audio from YouTube without authorization
>Coincidentally it also bypasses security measures for age ratings or music and uses VEVO videos as examples in the source code
>We believe that this software is being distributed to pirate music off of YouTube and other platforms
Piracy has always been an anal topic and basically any tool being used primarily for piracy will get its ass beaten, even if that's not why I or others actually used YouTube DL.
The music industry rather notoriously acts above the law, if they're coming after you it's pretty much over. Remember that shit like SOPA and Article 13 was pushed primarily by them, they have so much power they can lobby governments to pass entire censorship laws in the name of curbing piracy, and suppress studies that point out that piracy is a non-issue today.
It wasn't, it's a false DMCA.
>copyrighted material on the README
A youtube link is not copyrighted material.
anyone has full git tree available?
This is the most recent copy (October 22nd) I'm aware of.

Ok, fuck the jews currently residing in Europe as well.
This shit would not fly in based EU. EU hates Google and they would rule against them for this faggotry. Like said, their shit wouldn't even hold in court.
This DMCA wasn't from Google though.
literally already upheld in europe, eat shit nigga
The notice literally quotes a court case in Germany, although it is only from a regional court.
>regional court
Well if it's just one case then it doesn't mean shit, you need a ton of caselaw behind you usually to get something more overturned at the top.
the Juice is getting problematic in Germany...
Germany sucks too.
And it mentions that the German law is based on the American law, most likely as a result of a trade agreement or some shit.
never ever trust globohomo and corporations
always backup and mirror your shit
fuck google
fuck github
fuck microsoft
fuck RIAA

>simple as
go back
New Pipe is next
Also its still on pypi for now. They aren't going to get every packaged version.
Can't they just remove the offending material and re upload it somewhere? If the issue is just having links to videos in the readme it should be an easy fix, right?

I don't support this DMCA claim but this is retarded. Their claim wasn't that it should be taken down because it can be used for piracy, it's that it should be taken down because it was designed to be used for piracy and has anti-piracy circumvention in the code.
Ok schlomo
They cite the youtube license in the message. Does that hold water anywhere outside the states?
Then again it works on dozens of webites and I doubt all of them have restrictive licenses.
>Does that hold water anywhere outside the states?
Doesn't matter, GitHub is a US-based company.
>and has anti-piracy circumvention in the code.
windows also has anti-piracy circumvention in the form of allowing you to run circumvention exes
someone DMCA microsoft
>windows also has anti-piracy circumvention in the form of allowing you to run circumvention exes
If those exes were included in Windows, then yes, it would probably be targeted by RIAA. But they're not... so I don't see your point. None of that circumvention code is actually a part of Windows.
yes it is, allowing you to run arbitrary code IS circumvention
windows needs to be locked down and only run applications approved by law
That's not the argument RIAA is making at all. I don't know why you're just acting like a retard now.
u smell kinda jewish bro
this is a non issue, this has been the status quo, the source will continue to be distributed.
And, more specifically, that the repos full on suggest downloading copyrighted music.
It would be like if emulators told you specifically to go to piracy site here to download some roms, once that happens, Nintendo is on their ass immediately. Without that, Nintendo can't do fucking shit.
Literally does not matter, none of that is illegal, in the same way that explaining to someone how to use a gun doesn't make you a murderer. "Nintendo is on their ass" with false legal threats, none of that shit would actually hold up in court because it's not illegal.
Are we pretending to be a lawyer today neet?
Are YOU a lawyer? If so, could you list the laws that say that telling someone else how to commit a crime is illegal?
You "download copyrighted music" every time you open youtube and play a video.
You cannot give people content and then at the same time steal it from their minds after. These lawyers and the parasites feeding them are fucking insane.

reminder to cut off your ears and slice out your tongue since even singing copyrighted material is subject to fines. It wasn't so long ago that singing happy birthday made you a criminal.
Copyright law and intellectual property are the worst cancers on this earth
I thought making cracks and stuff was fine under US law? Reverse engineering is legal and good if no copyrighted material is distributed. It's just emulating the requests to the server, so to speak.
In a non-quack court, there's no way this claim stands. It's retarded.
It is fine, as I have said already several times this is an invalid DMCA that would not hold up in court. No copyrighted content in the repo = no valid DMCA.

If you're talking about this - it has been disabled by the same DMCA automatically, along with every other fork. That's how GitHub works.
By the way, who has to submit a counter-DMCA now - just the yt-dl git owner, or every individual fork too?

This is the law mentioned in the DMCA notice. I can't understand it because I am retarded and not a lawyer but this seems contradictory to reverse engineering law. Not to mention it isn't unauthorized access because the content is public to begin with. youtube-dl could only rip stuff that was public or at least unlisted.
https://www.copyright.gov/title17/92chap12.html#1205
the dmca claim mentions parity with german law as well.
DMCA aren't about legality. It's a threat that tells you it could go to court if you refuse to comply. I highly doubt downloading video from youtube present any legal issue but no one can afford to pay months worth of lawyers except the people making the threats.
Also should be noted a lot of sites don't even follow the DMCA policy directly and have their own takedown implementation but still use the moniker "DMCA".
If they fight this in court there is no way they can lose.
This is illegal in America.
Well at least they can now fully ignore those thousands of issue reports lol

is it using proprietary code or something?
No, it's not using anything copyrighted, it's a false DMCA.
It's literally just "this is doing something we don't like waaah delete it" in legal speak
no, the whole bases of the dmca is that it CAN be used to download copyrighted videos, that's it, its like banning printers because they can be used to print copyrighted books
they included copyrighted materials in the test suites (material under RIAA) which implies the tool is being used to download those materials. Had they just set a rule that the only videos in test suites were things labeled as public domain they would not have had this happen
>they included copyrighted materials in the test suites (material under RIAA)
They did not include copyrighted materials. They included links to copyrighted materials. Not illegal.
SAVING URLS IS PIRACY GOY
should correct myself, they included LINKS to copyrighted material in the test suite, regardless it was the only thing needed to call foul play

Likely this was initially implemented in youtube to make it harder for hotlinking scum, and then morphed into a nice way to configure their CDN... and then a nice thing to put in front of the RIAA to assuage their concerns and keep things running as they always had.
Really hurt the users with bad internet connections, though. Couldn't buffer the entire video after this change, in 2011?

I would be very surprised if this doesn't depend on youtube-dl in some way. There's a shitload of google hacks and bullshit you have to go through and doing all that work yourself from scratch is insane.
you can basically use this url to grab a video
http://youtube.com/get_video_info?video_id=VIDEOID
apart from that the video urls are right there in the html source
Pretty sure that doesn't work with DASH
you can download dash or hls with ffmpeg
for some videos (e.g. music), these require some signatures to be decrypted first for the URL in there to work
which is literally what got youtube-dl where is now
it's just a one time token that expires after a few minutes
no that's not what I mean
protected videos don't include an URL that works without extra steps, normally there's an "url" key in that dict not a "signatureCipher"
youtube-dl then does some js shit to decrypt it first
dont care about this character mumbo jumbo if the browser can play it i can also download it that's how the internet works

"Indeed, the comments in the youtube-dl source code make clear that the source code was designed and is marketed for the purpose of circumventing YouTube’s technological measures to enable unauthorized access to our member’s copyrighted works, and to make unauthorized copies and distributions thereof: they identify our member’s works, they note that the works are VEVO videos (virtually all of which are owned by our member companies), they acknowledge the those works are licensed to YouTube under the YouTube standard license, and they use those examples in the source code to describe how to obtain unauthorized access to copies of our members’ works."

he says bulletproof hosters (if they exist, which he denies) are banned *by* western countries, so the wouldn't be useful anyway
USA does not block web sites.
Well, the famous one in the castle in Germany was banned because of rumors it was the home of some TOR black market. It was accessilbe through TOR nodes outside of US only
>bans working

even tech illiterates are bypassing these bans...
No, that's the same anon. He's backing his claims by doubling down that Russia is a paragon of western freedom of speech.
It's been awhile since I kek'd this hard on /g/, thanks everyone.
I haven't used yt-dl to break the law even once.
It simply is a convenient back up tool to have videos available offline. And available on devices without Youtube support.
The American music industry hasn't produced anything worthwhile this century so far.
Haven't even listened actively to one of their songs even once. If at all as supermarket background noise.

I guess they had branding from people who didn't like them. Also github is only 1 repo, git is like e-mail so there can be other copies out there even if Microsoft and Google doesn't like it.
Would this be because of code contained in youtube-dl or Google getting mad at ppl downloading vids?
Neither, the RIAA is historically a conglomerate of rich bastards who screech anytime someone doesn't pay $20,000 for licenses in order to play 5 seconds of a song for their school presentation.

looks like they done fucked up by giving examples which are copyrighted songs
c'mon guys, don't do that, you know the music industry is butthurt as fuck that music has become absolutely trivial to obtain and transfer
Music has also become trivial to produce and self publish. The big publishers are being made redundant.
you're right, you don't need a printer to make ads, and you don't need an industrial cd stamper to make releases
times have changed
Middlemen were the automated jobs after all. How did we end up giving them so much money/power in the first place?
Because they cornered the market. Just watch the scalpers in the 30XX Nvidia cards sales to see what they can do.
because it used to take a lot of people and money to advertise around the world
now there's ways to advertise on the internet relatively cheaply
and of course for manufacturing and distribution, no longer do you need to get your master duplicated, packaged, and shipped to hundred of stores, no, you just give distribution rights to some online streaming services, easy.

That's not taking down and that's not decentralized. Specifically they attack the centralized segments in the pipeline precisely because you can't do shit about the decentralized segment.

Honest question: what is the chink equivalent of youtube that includes VEVO and the like for the people? Is it only c-pop party approved anthems or does it include western stuff meant to sell over there? What about animu music (the only shit I literally care)?

That will only matter once developers start working on it again. The repos being posted so far are just mirrors, and no one knows which one, if any, will be the permanent home. The DMCA could get reversed anyway.
The RIAA is ~technically correct~ in their stilted claim that the program "encourages" downloading copyrighted material.
https://github.com/r4rdsn/youtube-dl/blob/416da574ec0df3388f652e44f7fe71b1e3a4701f/youtube_dl/extractor/youtube.py#L582
Each extractor has a bit of code for testing that it functions, this bit right here tests on copyrighted material. Youtube-dl needs to go through each fucking extractor and verify that it tests on something in the CC like Big Buck Bunny. Countless programs have fallen prey to this fucking stupid semantic bullshit, Kodi was fucked over on the Android Store because it showed clips of Breaking Bad and other copyrighted stuff, they had to yank those images out and just leave stuff showcasing their UI. This is a time consuming task to become compliant but an otherwise easy one.
I don't mean just the Youtube extractor, every single fucking extractor will need a pull request to handle this. I think the best course of action would be to separate the primary extractor (youtube) and make the community shit a separate endevour in a different repository. The devs seem to be burning out anyway.
Surely they can fool the RIAAtards by simply base64'ing all those parts.
Waste of time, and base64ing could lead to criminal charges of conspiracy since they're attempting to conceal their activities. The best bet is to use stuff in the commons for the program to test itself against.
Just use links to other content in tests. NCS songs or anything under CC.
This is pretty dumb they could have chosen any video.
This. What the fuck were they thinking? Use public domain examples to keep the copyjews away.
Removing that isn't enough to save them. youtube-dl is specifically coded to circumvent Youtube's download restrictions. Those examples are specific evidence of this, but they don't need examples in the code for it to be true and they can still make a DMCA takedown request based on the fact that it does circumvent the restrictions.
>Removing that isn't enough to save them. youtube-dl is specifically coded to circumvent Youtube's download restrictions.
It wasn't google who placed the claim though.
Their main argument was that it was used mainly to download copyrighted content, thus the examples.
Additionally, it is google's code, not theirs.
>It wasn't google who placed the claim though.
They likely still have standing as the legal representation of the copyright holders. If they had no association with Youtube they probably wouldn't be allowed to make the claim, but since their copyrighted content is on Youtube, they put it there only because Youtube has DRM, and this circumvents the DRM to allow the content to be downloaded, the copyright holder can hold them to account for making a DRM circumvention scheme allowing unauthorized access to their content.
>They likely still have standing as the legal representation of the copyright holders.
About the song copying? Yes. And they claim:
>The clear purpose of this source code is to (i) circumvent the technological protection measures used by authorized streaming services such as YouTube, and (ii) reproduce and distribute music videos and sound recordings owned by our member companies without authorization for such use. We note that the source code is described on GitHub as “a command-line program to download videos from YouTube.com and a few more sites.”1
But:
(i) It is not their technology, etc.
(ii) But youtube-dl doesn't reproduce or distribute anything. It only saves to the user's machine.
Overall seems like a bunch of loosely related things put together to scare non-lawyers.
It does not have to be their technology for their work to be protected by it. The claim isn't that random code exists, it's that it is copyright protection circumvention, which would logically require there to be copyrighted content protected by it. They are the copyright holders whose content is protected by the DRM and thus are an aggrieved party.
They have a claim over any distribution of their content, not over other people's software (unless given permission).
What they do is: show that some of their content is linked in the tests, not in the examples, then say:
>The source code is a technology primarily designed or produced for the purpose of, and marketed for, circumventing a technological measure that effectively controls access to copyrighted sound recordings on YouTube, including copyrighted sound recordings owned by our members.
It circumvents DRM that is being used to protect their copyrighted content. It is thus copyright protection circumvention software. They can make the claim against the software given it circumvents the DRM protecting their content.

How come so many idiots itt are unironically blaming microshit and shithub for simply following the (very dumb) law?
Shithub has always followed the stupid american laws, even before selling out.
Btw, fuck microshit and install gentoo. But they have literally nothing to do with this shit this time.
MAFIAA sent a dmca, which means ytdl is presumed guilty until they claim they're innocent according to burger legislation.
when you open a yt video, the browser downloads all those little pieces of the video and plays them back.
youtube-dl does exactly the same thing, except it stiches them together.
it doesn't aide distribution of whatever you want to watch any more than a browser. you could do the same shit manualy from the local temp files that your browser downloads from youtube.
this is a scare tactic.
exactly, they claim it circumvents some rolling cipher shit, but it does nothing your browser doesn't do to play youtube videos
If youtube changed their site now, youtube-dl would break, and nobody could push a fix.
Sometimes video is encrypted.
Neither of those things are true. It just inverts a string in the url. But that is not mentioned on the claim, someone came up with it on the last thread. Also, it is not their software, it is google's, so they can't claim shit.
that's true, even if it did illegal circumvent some component of youtube, that's google's fight, not theirs
Mazel tov! We won fellow music industry hassidim!
Ytdl is one of the last good things of the internet. It's depressing that soon everyone will be using a chromium based browser and every YT video will have DRM so you can't even rip some shitty vlog and preserve it.
Regardless of ytdl, wasm will be in full effect soon enough. This kills every countermeasure instantly by design, and instantly makes any attempt to bypass this illegal.
>wasm will be in full effect soon enough.
you say that but I'm developing websites with no js just fine, no need to go further from there
That's utterly irrelevant. You are not youtube, and you're not serving a clone of the youtube video database. How is you personally not using scripts going to affect youtube forcing wmalwaresm down everyone's throat?
>the RIAA
thanks america...
The RIAA's legal complaint is about the """cipher""" decryption, which is only used for music videos, correct? Would a youtube-dl fork that removes this feature be taken down? I've never used it to download music videos, and I don't plan to.
or just a fork that doesn't work on youtube? I use it on other sites too, and this would be better than nothing.
They claim it fits such a description because of:
It is very vague, the mentioned code is basically inverting a string and is exactly the same as the JS one. See last thread.
wasm is not different than obfuscated JS in that regard and yt doesn't even bother obfuscating their code.
I've read both threads, and I know what they're claiming is bullshit by sensible standards, but I'm wondering if there's an easy way to appease them anyway.
Because it's definitely impossible to circumvent DRM on video-streaming sites that use it, like Netflix, right?
>Because it's definitely impossible to circumvent DRM on video-streaming sites that use it, like Netflix, right?
Currently yes, it's impossible. This is why you can't play netflix on linux, except on chromeOS.
wdym, i've played netflix on linux, albeit in garbage 480p quality
You're definitely remembering wrong (or it's recently finally been made available). The needed drm cancer is (was) not available on linux, so netflix doesn't work. However chromeos belonging to google, they do have the drm blobery needed, so it works there.
PS: Correction to this:
Where do torrents of Netflix series come from then? Genuine question, I don't use Netflix or watch any of their series.
It would be problematic if youtube-dl could only download content from youtube licensed CC since most isn't. The legal complaint in the letter is about "Anticircumvention Violation", though, so if this functionality is removed, they don't have any standing, right? That would be much less restrictive than not allowing download of standard youtube license content.
Surprise surprise, people have decoded the DRM of Netflix, but they haven't publicized the code or how it works. However, even if it weren't decoded directly, you could just record your screen and upload that.
>It would be problematic if youtube-dl could only download content from youtube licensed CC since most isn't.
The argument would be:
It can be used for a multitude of things, not only "anticircumvention violation". Stop pulling stuff out of your ass you fucking glowie, seethe, dilate, etc.
>It can be used for a multitude of things, not only "anticircumvention violation".
Pretty sure the specific part that they're calling "anticircumvention violation" can only be used for one thing: "decrypting" the video URL of youtube videos with a specific "use_cipher_signature" flag set >>78350478
>Stop pulling stuff out of your ass you fucking glowie, seethe, dilate, etc.
?
I'm not on the RIAA's side of course, but I'm not the one making the decisions. My point is that if their complaint is decided to be valid, or even if nobody wants to bother fighting them, it shouldn't be too hard to simply remove the offending parts, which seem to me to be a pretty small part of the codebase.
>Pretty sure the specific part that they're calling "anticircumvention violation" can only be used for one thing: "decrypting" the video URL of youtube videos with a specific "use_cipher_signature" flag set >>78350478
I understand your concern. My points are that:
1. the decision they present doesn't seem to have been held by the german supreme court (obviously, since inverting a string and providing the code to undo that is not a cipher);
2. even if they were correct, we claim fair use for archival, non-profit purposes and as the only way to exercise the CC rights of videos on yt,
>Stop pulling stuff out of your ass you fucking glowie, seethe, dilate, etc.
We tell that to the RIAA glowies.
>My point is that if their complaint is decided to be valid, or even if nobody wants to bother fighting them,
That can only be decided on court, I don't think they would follow up on that desu.
>it shouldn't be too hard to simply remove the offending parts, which seem to me to be a pretty small part of the codebase.
It could be inconvenient. One option is to make it analyze the js player and extract the string indexes when executed. Or we could do a clean room implementation, someone reads the js code, writes a spec and someone else implements it.
>2. even if they were correct, we claim fair use for archival, non-profit purposes and as the only way to exercise the CC rights of videos on yt,
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but from what I understood, that URL obfuscation is only used for music videos, yes? Would be pretty hard to claim that downloading those is fair use, if you take the RIAA's position that the obfuscation constitutes a something designed to prevent watching the video in any way other than streaming through a web browser.
The rest of your points make sense to me. Clear room implementation seems a bit overkill, it's the equivalent of a couple of lines of python code, from what I saw in pictures in this and the last thread.
I'm a bit worried about the ones getting sued. They may not want to work with the project for a while.
>constitutes a something
>Clear room
holy fuck I can't type today
>Would be pretty hard to claim that downloading those is fair use, if you take the RIAA's position that the obfuscation constitutes a something designed to prevent watching the video in any way other than streaming through a web browser.
Copying a DVD for backup is fair use, but at the time there wasn't much libre content so I don't think anyone made the argument about libdvdcss.
We could do something similar to libdvdcss and host the youtube module and the keys in different places and jurisdictions. The end user then automatically downloads them.
>Clear room implementation seems a bit overkill, it's the equivalent of a couple of lines of python code, from what I saw in pictures in this and the last thread.
It would be as simple as someone writing a document that says:
The numbers are 1, 2, 3.
Isn't this closer to a movie theater cam recording than a backup copy of a DVD? The streaming music video isn't "intended" to be saved by the viewer, just like the movie in the theater. You aren't supposed to have even a single copy of it, much less a backup.
I don't agree that these videos shouldn't be downloadable, but I think this is their point.
>Isn't this closer to a movie theater cam recording than a backup copy of a DVD
probably but the theater charges for you to use their projector, complaining people aren't downloading your ads is bs
>Isn't this closer to a movie theater cam recording than a backup copy of a DVD?
That isn't illegal under copyright law either, as long as it is for personal use.
The movie theater will kick you out though.
Additionally, it is google's code, not theirs.
(Are you same anon I was talking to?)
>2. even if they were correct, we claim fair use for archival, non-profit purposes and as the only way to exercise the CC rights of videos on yt,
You would have to create it yourself for the purpose, you cannot publicly post anti-circumvention means simply because it "could" be used for things which fall under fair use.
CC only gives you liberties over the content you possess. It does not create an obligation to allow access.
>Feds release CP under CC
>catch pedo with encrypted drive
>"You not only have to unencrypt it due to the subpoena, if you don't we've got you for violating our rights under the CC!""
That's really not going to work...
1. The german supreme court apparently didn't agree with the decision they cite. And it is pretty obvious that it is in fact not circumvention software.
2. It is not their software, it is youtube software over which they can't claim infringement;
3. They claim the software is mainly used for copyright infringement, which is not true since people can download CC content. In fact, the youtube-dl can be the only way to exercise your CC rights from a video hosted on youtube.
Everything else you wrote is retarded and you should feel bad;
why do you think RIAA gives a fuck about German Laws?
They used it in the claim kek, go read it.
You have no CC rights, only liberties.
Why you do this anon? You could just go there and check for yourself.

Fair use for archival.
>wasm is not different than obfuscated JS
Far, far harder to deobfuscate, and there is significant legal ground to instalkill anyone who so much as tries to decompile.
>yt doesn't even bother obfuscating
With wasm, this will change. Remember that wasm is being pushed under the guise of performance. No amount of obfuscation can really hide what resources are touched and where to get access to the stream. With wasm, it can be obfuscated perfectly (needs runtime analysis) and this will most likely devolve into encrtyped blobs that need a user-side blob to run the wasm at all.
will i have to watch ads now?
Yes, adblockers that do anything more complicated than what a hosts blacklist can do will be defeated and it would not be legal for adblockers to actually be developed to work against wasm.
Incidentally, since special measures to block script execution on 4chan, but only midway, must be performed to get the site to render without loading the malware domains loaded by hiroshima, it also means many people will stop going to 4chan (for real this time (tm)).
Maybe that'll finally give a sizable group of people a reason to move to better sites.
Not a single site on the internet has any content worth running malware in your browser for.
ive never heard of this malware hiro installed? What is it? Does ublock remove it by default?
I think ublock does, and umatrix definitely does. At the time it was panic all over /g/ and elsewhere over this. Took a day or two for them to find a fix. The obfuscated payload from one of the scripts from s.4chan.org loads malware ads (some used to do driveby malware installs, it's because of the ad provider itself being that kind of malicious provider; now it's full-on tracking with pixels and everything at least), and blocking that script outright immediately stops the server from sending you site data so you get broken pages.
>Far, far harder to deobfuscate,
Not really. Wasm doesn't try to obfuscate anything per say, it only compiles to a lower level. Keep in mind that wasm runs on a VM, so the compiler doesn't need to do many optimizations. An example of this is the JVM, most optimizations are done by the VM and decompiling is still possible unless extra steps are taken.
>and there is significant legal ground to instalkill anyone who so much as tries to decompile.
De-assemblers have existed since forever and reverse engineering is not illegal per se. See the clean room technique, commercial and libre programs have been made with it.
>With wasm, it can be obfuscated perfectly (needs runtime analysis) and this will most likely devolve into encrtyped blobs that need a user-side blob to run the wasm at all.
Live loading is already done by obfuscating services and some sites already require DRM modules, such as netflix.
>Wasm doesn't try to obfuscate anything per say, it only compiles to a lower level.
i.e. "yes really". What, you think it's simple to decompile a compiled c program stripped of debug information? Try it anytime.
>De-assemblers have existed since forever and reverse engineering is not illegal per se.
Disassembling a compiled binary from a proprietary software is itself illegal, let alone properly reverse-engineering. Look it up, chump.
>Live loading is already done by obfuscating services and some sites already require DRM modules, such as netflix.
Yes, but with wasm, it will be everyone at all times. Ads are typically provided by 3rd parties, so they're best if they work without a drm module, otherwise people could just not have the module and have no ads. With wasm needed to see any website at all, not so much a need to work outside the one blob to rule them all. Also many schemes could be used to force the ads through, such as dynamically generating the blob with embedded ads, so that cross-domain request blocking cannot work. While it's already done today, it's possible to block scripts on a per-case basis right now, and even to partially mitigate active scripts, as umatrix does on 4chan. Not so much when wasm hits.
Circumventing DRM is illegal. Simply looking at the machine code as it's stored on the hard drive isn't circumvention.
Which dumbass thought DRM was a good idea. If you own it / it ended up in your possession, don't you own it?
They're trying to artificially create scarcity.
DRM is a great idea when you're the enforcing it. I can completely understand why corporations would want to do it.
that's a toddler-level understanding of ownership rights
In the most pragmatic sense, you own things only in so far as you are able to control them. DRM together with copyright law exists to limit your control in favor of someone else. If you want to take control of something you have to fight for it in some way... legally, digitally, financially, violently, etc.
finder's keepers, loser's weepers faggot
Yes, disassembling a proprietary software and then doing nothing with it is fine. Disassembling and figuring out how to make it compatible with something else is also fine (there is precedent for this). However, disassembling and sharing findings obtained through this alone is illegal, and sharing the disassembly is illegal.
See Secion 103(f) of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. § 1201 (f))
and
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bowers_v._Baystate_Technologies,_Inc.
>i.e. "yes really". What, you think it's simple to decompile a compiled c program stripped of debug information? Try it anytime.
No, because the compiler performs many optimizations. With wasm the VM does the optimizations, the compiled code translates quite nicely to high level languages. Unless you obfuscate it ofc.
>Disassembling a compiled binary from a proprietary software is itself illegal, let alone properly reverse-engineering. Look it up, chump.
Clean room reverse engineering. Look it up, chump.
>Yes, but with wasm, it will be everyone at all times.
I see no reason to believe that. As we can see, youtube doesn't bother with it.
>Also many schemes could be used to force the ads through, such as dynamically generating the blob with embedded ads, so that cross-domain request blocking cannot work.
Would take ages to load;
Would use a lot of server resources;
Would require all code to be provided by a single party, which bad in many ways.
All of that is exactly why it is not done today.
>While it's already done today, it's possible to block scripts on a per-case basis right now, and even to partially mitigate active scripts, as umatrix does on 4chan. Not so much when wasm hits.
All those things are done on a domain basis. Nothing to do with JS or wasm. If you send a single obfuscated JS file with everything packed into it, such blockers don't work either.
>Unless you obfuscate it ofc.
You're admitting your own fault
We have:
Plain JS with comments;
Minified JS (what you see in the browser);
Obfuscated JS.
And we have:
Plain code;
Decompillable wasm (few compiler optimizations bc of the VM and decently high level);
Obfuscated Wasm.
My point is that wasm doesn't change anything.
Clean room RE does not involve disassembly, maybe you should look up words you don't understand before making a fool out of yourself. Clean room quite literally means you don't know anything about the implementation (hence clean room), with the goal to reproduce a work legally. Having seen any part of the work during the reproduction could bring you to unwittingly copy some parts (just because you subconsciously remember them), which would be illegal. That's literally the whole point of the technique. For fuck's sake.
>No, because the compiler performs many optimizations. With wasm the VM does the optimizations, the compiled code translates quite nicely to high level languages. Unless you obfuscate it ofc.
Dat cope.
>I see no reason to believe that. As we can see, youtube doesn't bother with it.
Several sites, including the likes of spotify and netflix, already partially do it. There is 0 reason to believe otherwise: it would be heaven for ad-based sites, botnet sites, ad providers (who will refuse to service you if you're not wasm'd up), digital contents providers (middlemen will be forced into it), etc. You're just putting your hand in the sand.
>Would take ages to load;
>Would use a lot of server resources;
It's literally already being done right now and you don't even know it despite the examples I have repeated throughout my posts many times.
The site you're on right now does this.
>Would require all code to be provided by a single party, which bad in many ways.
1- lolno and 2- that's already how it works. You go to google ads, they serve you a bunch of ads every time you hit an api endpoint. It's the same single provider. Next, it will instead serve a plugin wasm blob.

Invidious and new pipe work differently.

>>78353037
By "differently" I mean that it would need to be a different claim, with different arguments.
>Stuff on decentralized networks can't be taken down.
Not true anymore. Thousands of torrents are taken down daily by the MPAA / RIAA / ACE bots by
1) Send DMCA URLs to Search Engines
2) Send DMCA URLs to website owner and take down the torrent.
3) Logging all IPs in the swarm and filing John / Jane Doe orders
4) Send DMCA domains to Hosting Provider
5) FBI and Interpol if the money is in millions
It doesn't matter which protocol you use, THEY WILL FIND A WAY
Torrents don't host content. Everyone uses DHT which is decentralized.
The only reason private trackers are safe "For Now" because of high barrier of entry, not because of Decentralization.
The only future is to abandon Clear-net completely.
It only happens in your "First World" retard, not in my Europe.
Private trackers sure as fuck aren't safe. They are the most centralized shit ever and requires payments or 1st world internet to use. A single glownigger being in (and I guarantee there's a dozen in every single private tacker) means everyone's being tracked perfectly with even the credentials to tie them to all the downloads without the benefit of the doubt that IPs per household give. They are probably just biding their time to either use it as a targeted weapon or blow the whole thing up at once.
Agreed, though, clearnet is dead. ipfs is the closest good alternate solution, but request proxying is needed to prevent assignment and kademlia is highly attackable because of the locality-based scheme allowing you to plant arbitrary material on arbitrary nodes.
i2p is a good alternative
Hosting is getting cheaper. Why use IPFS when you can just abuse jurisdictions?
You are 100% correct on private trackers.
Decentralization will surely solve the censorship part but is very susceptible to Botnet / DDoS attack (vulnerability, if any?) and even ISP filtering like (eg. port 23 for E-mail) Verizon already did in 2009.
This is a cat and mouse problem and only solves temporary problem of "Blame Game" from Website to ISP in the Decentralized future.
As mentioned the Big Tech will happily help the MAFIA cartel to develop something like Content ID to thumbprint every image or gif uploaded to Search Engine Index and will send DMCA based on hash.
>It only happens in your "First World" retard, not in my Europe.
Then wtf are you talking about?
>3) Logging all IPs in the swarm and filing John / Jane Doe orders
What for?
>1) Send DMCA URLs to Search Engines
Not taking down.
>2) Send DMCA URLs to website owner and take down the torrent.
Torrents don't host content, move to a first world country.
>3) Logging all IPs in the swarm and filing John / Jane Doe orders
Move to a first world country.
>4) Send DMCA domains to Hosting Provider
There is not hosting provider.
>5) FBI and Interpol if the money is in millions
Move to a first world country.
i reckon RIAA () is too incompetent to realize that anyone can just clone the entire repository and reupload it as numerous people have already done. they'll have to spend their entire work days claiming all that shit for no good reason

it would only be a temporary inconvenience until devs settle on another hosting
How does a DMCA complainant own the code of youtube-dl? DMCA is a mechanism for copyright owners to have removed copies of their copyrighted material, isn't it? Wouldn't the copyright holder of youtube-dl be able to sue Google for suppressing their work?
It is not properly a DMCA request, even if it was filled as such.
https://github.com/github/dmca/blob/master/2020/10/2020-10-23-RIAA.md
DMCA is a mechanism for organizations with enough money to shut down people they don't like.

In the future, this won't happen again, because videos that need special protection will use hardware DRM. Which is unbreakable. Sure, some pirates will probably be able to break it and rip some stuff, but nothing will be stable and well known enough to put it into something like youtube-dl.
It'll be over soon.
Bros, maybe we should just pay for the videos instead of spending all this effort trying to commit a crime.
Some pirates use screen capture to bypass DRM. I assure you that's the next thing we're looking to ban.
Recording your screen is legal and has plenty of court cases to back it up.
Banning screen recorders outright is impossible of course. Limiting the license to good actors is the probable solution.
youtube-dl has uses other than downloading low quality audio from music videos. You should be going to torrents for that anyway.
Analog hole.
Suck it, RIAA.

I request, under DMCA that, Github remove any all of potentially violating software under the aforementioned terms.

I think we are onto something, fren.
they mention that youtube-dl facilitates distribution, which is total bullshit, i doubt there's any text from the authors that says the resulting files should be redistributed
-- in fact, we already know their policy on copyright infringement
the readme (which is linked in that takedown notice, no less) actually has a section on support for those dodgy websites which host content they have no right to distribute, and the youtube-dl devs refuse to support them because of it
The only (could be) legally binding thing they mention is from someone else's code.
The "facilitates distribution" thing is an empty argument that becomes even worse if the links on the tests are changes.
GNU Echo doesn't have an "-s" option, i wonder what he's using
I assumed he meant echo to output that -s back to mplayer, but then again, it wouldn't make sense not to put it outside the $(). Btw, that's LITERALLY the reason we have printf, why do people still use echo?
The copying of the files is distribution.
Copying for yourself is not distribution. Making a copy of a DVD is not the same as distributing copies of the DVD.
isn't this equivalent?
allowed to watch dvd, allowed to make backup copy for personal use
allowed to watch youtube video, not allowed to make backup copy for personal use?
i don't use youtube-dl to do anything dodgy, i use it for things like downloading long videos to put on my phone so i can watch them on a plane and the like
hell most of the time i'm not actually keeping a copy, and just use it to stream videos to mpv, my preferred video player
I think so. The claim is very odd and loosely logically connected.
What the RIAA is claiming is not conformant to the law as outlined in Sony v. Universal which was over Betamax being capable of making copies of material. Making copies of material has always been allowed, it was distribution that was illegal.
You do not own Youtube. Youtube distributing a copy to you is distribution.
Sure, it is youtube distributing, not me. Running youtube-dl is not distributing anything.
Serving up youtube-dl is serving up software that facilitates distribution of copyrighted content.

Why now though? Anything specific that prompted the DMCA?
"Progress" as defined by low EQ.
It is not technically a DMCA. Similar previous case: https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20140711/18044627859/mpaa-stretches-dmca-to-breaking-point-with-questionable-take-down-request-popcorn-time-repositories.shtml
Popcorn time is bittorrent which has no DRM to circumvent. youtube-dl circumvents Youtube's DRM in order to download.
Does the RIAA even have a claim then?
It looks like Google should be the only one able to file a DMCA under that code.
As the representatives of the copyrighted content the DRM protects, yes. The software circumvents the DRM protecting their content.
The DMCA does not prohibit you from undermining a platform, it protects the content.
>As the representatives of the copyrighted content the DRM protects, yes.
It is not their software. They claim the same as you and provide a german court decision as reference. Said decision apparently was reverted but idk german and can't find it.
>They don't mention DRM. They only mention an "Anticircumvention Violation", which might as well be DRM if a judge agrees with them.
Apparently the german court decision was reverted, but I can't find it. Help from german speaker would be appreciated.
I made the same joke today, kek.
It doesn't need to be their software for it to be circumventing the protection measures on their content.
Sure, but you can't claim anything if you don't own the rights to the software.
Neither you or me can go around filling DMCAs on other people's work.
That is besides the point desu. Everything is a big, big mental gymnastics. They claim youtube-dl is used to distribute THEIR copyrighted content because urls are used in tests somewhere(allegedly).
>Neither you or me can go around filling DMCAs on other people's work.
There's no punishment for it either so you can easily harrass anyone you want by making fake claims on their youtube channel.
3 strikes and you can delete their whole channel overnight.
>Neither you or me can go around filling DMCAs on other people's work.
That's the problem with burger law: we can! Just go around and throw bad-faith DMCA's at your competition and fuck them over. It's perfectly fine!
>Everything is a big, big mental gymnastics.
That it is. Who cares? Not burgerlanders.
You are prohibited from circumventing protections on copyrighted content. Full stop. There is zero requirement of "owning the software" in there. Circumventing the protections is illegal.
There may be an additional charge of tortious interference by cracking the DRM and thus interfering with the owner's business relationship with the copyright holders, but that is separate from the DMCA prohibition on cracking the DRM.
You circumvent protections on copyrighted content when you press the record button on your DVR.
No you don't.
How so? I can record a movie on TV right now and have a bit-perfect digital copy to share or even sell.
And what DRM are you cracking?
What DRM am I cracking by using youtube-dl? As far as I know YouTube sends you unprotected video data and all youtube-dl does is save that. No different from using a DVR to record a TV broadcast.
Nope, Youtube will not simply accept a download request. They do not just serve up www.youtube.com/Justin_Bieber.mp4. If they did we would not need youtube-dl.
Run youtube-dl -g video_url and see for yourself.
What does the -g flag do?
returns the youtube url to the video file
youtube.com/justin_bieber.mp4
Which is heavily obfuscated.
You need youtube-dl to decrypt the URL you give it, which makes it a circumvention tool.
Again, the DRM does not have to be uncrackable for it to be protected as DRM. It just has to exist.
>Which is heavily obfuscated.
>You need youtube-dl to decrypt
That is not obfuscated much less encrypted, that is just an ugly cdn url with some metadata in it. (including your IPv6 btw).
Question:
Does work?
Yes, but make sure to specify a format that contains video and audio. Use -F to list formats and -f to pick one.

The one posted on the other thread, if shit = 32 then array[103]-s[2] or somesuch.
>inb4 that's not enough to be drm
That thread they came to the conclusion that even rot13, if used to protect digital rights is DRM. I think even "NONCEreal address".substr(5) could be DRM.
>The one posted on the other thread, if shit = 32 then array[103]-s[2] or somesuch.
That is a string inversion and the notice doesn't mention it anywhere, someone suggested it as the referred thing. It also basically a copy of the JS code.
>That thread they came to the conclusion that even rot13, if used to protect digital rights is DRM. I think even "NONCEreal address".substr(5) could be DRM.
Wrong. Some anon claimed that and left.
You're thinking like a technolo/g/ist. But in the end, the guys calling the shots are the judges. If you make a well paid report that "NONCEreal address".substr(5) is DRM, do you think they have the expertise to tell it's bullcrap?
You are again, missing the whole point. That thing is only thrown there so they can appear to have some legitimacy. The basis of the the claim is that youtube-dl is used to distributed copyright content, and that is not true.
Similar claim to popcorntime was ignored. Similar as in: nether was a claim against hosted copyrighted content, both were against a software that (allegedly) can be used to distribute copyrighted content.
Yes, they are lying thru their rotten teeth. Their claims are false. Doesn't stop them from claiming it. But it will be rejected. Who cares? The damage is done. They scared the normalfags. They buried a few broke devs on paperwork, probably expensive paperwork. That's their goal. They are not making this to win. They are making obviously wrong claims to hinder the progress of the legitimate devs. They won't be punished for it, so they do it.
>They buried a few broke devs on paperwork, probably expensive paperwork.
In popcorn-time's case it was as simple as sending a counter claim.
And no normalfag touched popcorn time ever again, did they?
That was after the initial dev left.
So? They just keep pushing expensive lawsuits that won't stick on the main dev here and do the same thing? Nothing stops them from doing this. The law favours the shekels.
That is one tactic. Losing the lawsuit can be expensive so it is only done when they are sure to win. This is not one such case.
>Losing the lawsuit
But they won't lose. You just keep throwing money at the problem and it grows longer until the other part can't throw any more money on it and they lose. That's burger justice system AFAIK.
>That thread they came to the conclusion that even rot13, if used to protect digital rights is DRM.
Yup. You can't really set a required level of difficulty since what is "trivial" would depend on the methods and everything is trivial once implemented. So to try would basically end up with: "The only DRM that may not be cracked is uncrackable DRM. If something's crackable it obviously isn't strong enough to be considered "real" DRM."
If they implement rot13, you're not allowed to target it with rot13 to decrypt it. This doesn't make rot13 illegal, you just can't make software specifically designed to rot13 rot13 protected content.
This misses the whole point.
Netflix, a cable subscription, etc. It's the same as YouTube
>You are prohibited from circumventing protections on copyrighted content. Full stop. There is zero requirement of "owning the software" in there. Circumventing the protections is illegal.
Someone has to sue you. That someone has to have the rights for the infringed content.
In this case even whether it is in fact circumventing protections is debatable.
Not that any of this is really, important, given how bad the rest of the notice is.
Please read the links in the OP, this is getting tiring.
It is called perjury.
The RIAA is the legal representative of the parties in question, and they made a DMCA takedown request for the software violating the DMCA's anticircumvention section on content they are legally representing.

>and they made a DMCA takedown request for the software violating the DMCA's anticircumvention section on content they are legally representing
That is not their claim. In regards to their clients, they claim:
>reproduce and distribute music videos and sound recordings owned by our member companies without authorization for such use.
"reproduce and distribute" is not true.
I'm pretty sure every anon here knows their claim is bull. Problem is it doesn't matter under burger law. As for being a party or not, it's greyish, depends on how dumb the lawyers and judges are. Protip: they went to law school because they sucked at high school math.
They don't need to be Youtube. The DRM is protecting their content.
Nothing in the DMCA says it only protects content that the copyright holders are serving up themselves using DRM they wrote themselves. It prohibits circumventing the DRM, it does not make the content owners jump through a narrow set of hoops to protect their content in order to gain protections.
>Nothing in the DMCA says it only protects content that the copyright holders are serving up themselves using DRM they wrote themselves.
Last time I repeat this.
You HAVE to hold the rights to the material to fill a claim. You or I cannot go around sending DMCA claims on behalf of other people. Doesn't matter if you use the "DRM" software to run your business.
>I am contacting you on behalf of the Recording Industry Association of America, Inc. (RIAA) and its member record companies. The RIAA is a trade association whose member companies create, manufacture or distribute sound recordings representing approximately eighty-five (85) percent of all legitimate recorded music consumption in the United States. Under penalty of perjury, we submit that the RIAA is authorized to act on behalf of its member companies on matters involving the infringement of their sound recordings, audiovisual works and images, including enforcing their copyrights and common law rights on the Internet.
See? The notice is not on behalf of google or youtube. Just read the thing, it is not that hard.
>Under penalty of perjury
But again, that is not the fucking point and it is not the basis of their claim.
>You HAVE to hold the rights to the material to fill a claim
They do.
Do they hold the rights to the youtube code? No.
They hold the rights to the videos and musics. But youtube-dl does not distribute those, as they claim.
It is not that hard anon. Just read the thing.
The DMCA protects the content, moron.
Against what you fucking retard? You can make backups of things. youtube-dl doesn't distribute anything you illiterate retard.
Don't fucking post if you have no idea of what you are talking about. We are literally discussing a piece of text linked in the OP. Just fucking read it again.
Fucking uneducated little shit.
>youtube-dl doesn't distribute anything
So what? It's software used for piracy.
As much as a torrent client or a web browser.
>torrent client
yes, that should be illegal too
>web browser
Just ban the websites, chrome provides plenty of protection.
A properly DRMd machine won't be able to steal the work of artists. Just replace computers with unrootable smartphones or dumb terminals.
>Just replace computers with unrootable smartphones or dumb terminals.
And if I point the camera of a dumb smartphone to record the screen of another playing some content, it should send it to their db to check for copyright infringement too, right?
Mandatory optic nerve implants to check for pirated content.
Yes, the analog loophole should be patched or at the very least made harder like with HDMI DRM and the removal of the 3.5mm jack.
That doesn't stop someone from tapping the speaker output terminals or even the DAC output stage. No tools required, just connect up your wires. Until humans get brain implants to hear sound the analog hole will always exist.
>That doesn't stop someone
It will stop the vast majority of people, thereby making the criminals with basic knowledge of electronics easier to track down.
>Until humans get brain implants to hear sound the analog hole will always exist.
That or just make all your devices listen to everything you do and phone back home when illegal playback is detected.
Filthy capitalist scum, copyright laws have been perverted to line the pockets of the rich and serve no other purpose anymore. Disney having complete ownership of centuries old folk stories shows how decrepit modern copyright law is.
Any software that can be used to pirate media is based
It makes the content owners rich. That's the point.
If they couldn't make money off it we wouldn't have it.
Did you even read my post? Yes, the original intention behind copyright was to financially benefit creators but in the corporate age it’s been corrupted and mostly used by multi-national conglomerates to profit off art they had nothing to do with in the first place
And?
That the content creators have an entire industry dedicated to their products is not damning of copyright, it proves its success.
Computers can be used for piracy too. Please take down all computers.
That you may make backups does not mean you must be given the capability.
youtube-dl also is not a backup tool, it downloads from youtube. That's not a backup, it's copyright infringement:
>Here, let me just use my camera to make a "backup" of every page of this book at this bookstore so I can read it at home
youtube-dl circumvents the protections youtube has placed to prevent downloading its videos. Google is not the only one who has a claim under the DMCA, the content owners also have a claim since it is their work whose copying it is facilitating.
Plenty of content on youtube is released under a creative commons license.
Wouldn't it be like the vast majority of content on youtube?
No. Probably because it does not default to that.
Also, Youtube search has a Creative Commons filter.
https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=youtube-dl&sp=CAMSAjAB
hmm...
A proprietary license should be assumed by default for YouTube. If they want to provide their hard work for free then they can host it elsewhere.
It already is, you imbecile. People set Creative Commons license themselves.
Then your pirate software should refuse to download such content.
Don't speak with your mouth full of cum.
Sorry dude, I only post cute cat pics. Politics gives me migraines.
Straight people don't end up in prison.
No it shouldn't. Pirate software should be hosted outside of US jurisdiction.
The entire world is US jurisdiction.
thats what the US likes to think
You are as dumb as a rock and it is impossible to argue with you. Literally just read the claim, it is on the first paragraph.
Do not engage him. He is really fucking dumb, see the comment chain.
If it's on the Internet, it will be downloaded and preserved, no exceptions. Just like anything a human brain perceives - it needs to copy data just to process it. Only an imbecile like the whole MPAA and RIAA boards would think making restrictions to the very nature of things would prevent them from losing a fraction of their perpetual enrichment. And you know these fuckers - they'll never get sated. Even if they'll have all the money in the entire universe.
So fuck off.
What does that have to do with anything?
You can murder people. That doesn't make it legal.

Shouldn't you be posting pro-Trump memes on /pol/?
The Russian Collusion story was so embarassing and whistleblowers in the media gave it a funny little twist.
It's so obvious Putin owns Trump that it isn't even funny. Regardless of any collusion on the topic, the Russians are pushing Trump hard.
>It's so obvious Putin owns Trump that it isn't even funny.
Leave your basement.
Trump follows Putin around like a little puppy. He practically curtsies in Putin's presence.
While he may praise other strongmen dictators, he retreats into whispers around Putin.
Putin has something on him.
Hi Rachel, please do some research on middle eastern geopolitics.
Russia's tepid support for Trump has literally nothing to do with U.S. domestic policy.
Also stop trying to derail the thread you fucking kike
It has to do with undermining the US' world presence because Trump is an idiot and owned by Putin.
Ignore him, he is retarded.
>They hold the rights to the videos and musics. But youtube-dl does not distribute those, as they claim.
Yet they claim it. Unless the judge says their claim is false, you or I saying it won't change the DMCA.
>Yet they claim it. Unless the judge says their claim is false, you or I saying it won't change the DMCA.
That is not how DMCA works. Youtube-dl can fill a counter claim and only then RIAA would go to court.
They are not going to, it is a very bad case.
>Youtube-dl can fill a counter claim
Yeah, unless they do so, you or I saying this or that won't change shit.
And it would just get them sued. Github is also under no requirement to put it back up, either.
Did the popcorn time people get sued after filling a counter claim?
no
idiot
Not analogous, now is it?
>You don't know how popcorn time works, do you?
This is exactly what RIAA is after. They don't know the legal names and addresses of youtube-dl developers. Once they file a counter-notice, things gonna get ugly pretty fast.
It is not DRM and the claim was not filled on behalf of youtube by a representative of youtube.
They don't mention DRM. They only mention an "Anticircumvention Violation", which might as well be DRM if a judge agrees with them.
They have DRM on the movies you can buy there, and youtube-dl does not bypass it.
Youtube doesn't have DRM
...that isn't similar at all
this dmca is for circumvention
Neither of them is what is usually referred to as DMCA (distribution of copy righted content).
The similar one was also for circumvention:
> By this notification, we are asking for your immediate assistance in stopping your users’ unauthorized activity. Specifically, we request that you remove or disable access to the infringing Projects’ repositories and all related forks in accordance with either 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3)(A)(ii) (DMCA “representative list” provision), 17 U.S.C. § 512(i)(1)(A) (DMCA “repeat infringer” provision)
The main claim is that youtube-dl:
>The clear purpose of this source code is to (i) circumvent the technological protection measures used by authorized streaming services such as YouTube, and (ii) reproduce and distribute music videos and sound recordings owned by our member companies without authorization for such use. We note that the source code is described on GitHub as “a command-line program to download videos from YouTube.com and a few more sites.”
You could argue that youtube-dl does (i), but whoever filled the complain did so on behalf of the RAII, not youtube. And (ii) is just false. youtube-dl doesn't distribute or reproduce anything.
>Resource Acquisition Is Initialization
It's literally in the OP.

This is like banning VCRs and radios with built in tape recorder. ytdl does nothing aside from save a publicly broadcast medium. No hacks, no circumventions. If Google wants to stop it they can, but they clearly don't care since all YouTube streams are unencrypted.
If you didn't know they tried to sue and make those illegal a long time ago. They lost, but it's still what they wanted.
They lost back then because fair-use clause was invoked and analog recordings are never perfect and will also degrade over time. With digital "all or none" in the modern world it's becoming a lot more controversial. That VHS recording you made in 1997 probably looks like shit now, but the movie you record onto DVD-RAM today will look identical 20 years from now. Not to mention you can copy the MPEG file off that DVD and share it losslessly forever.
>Indeed, the comments in the youtube-dl source code make clear that the source code was designed and is marketed for the purpose of circumventing YouTube’s technological measures to enable unauthorized access to our member’s copyrighted works, and to make unauthorized copies and distributions thereof: they identify our member’s works, they note that the works are VEVO videos (virtually all of which are owned by our member companies), they acknowledge the those works are licensed to YouTube under the YouTube standard license, and they use those examples in the source code to describe how to obtain unauthorized access to copies of our members’ works.
> and to make unauthorized copies and distributions thereof:
False
>hey identify our member’s works, they note that the works are VEVO videos (virtually all of which are owned by our member companies), they acknowledge the those works are licensed to YouTube under the YouTube standard license, and they use those examples in the source code to describe how to obtain unauthorized access to copies of our members’ works.
All false. They claim urls to their videos are used somewhere but I can't find it. Maybe it was in a older tag/branch?
they were in the unit tests, one, for example, was to test age restricted videos
OP is going to sleep.
I really don't know how this takedown survives the obvious legal comparison to VCRs or DVR's which are legal and are far far more likely to be used on copyrighted content in the first place. It's not as if one can seriously argue that youtube-dl can only or even primarily be used to circumvent copyright I've literally used similar tools to allow me to download free lectures for use while on a community.

>Section (III) allows circumvention for the purpose of storing or transmitting media over a personal network, but explicitly prevents the uploading of media “to the Internet for mass, indiscriminate redistribution."[10]

Backup is allowed.
>driving is legal therefor I can hit pedestrians, I am just exercising my freedoms after all
It explicitly says that storing for personal use is fair use and legal.

Reddit's only way of arguing, hence why the public treats them as a joke at best and vermin at regular.
Your example is circumvention. Which is banned by preamble.
Are you from Reddit?
And just how does youtube-dl backup your personal content? It looks like it downloads content from youtube to me.
>Backup is allowed.
This isn't backup software bro, whatever you download eventually ends up on torrents.

The golden ears won't be able to tell if you upsampled or not. Your ratios are safe. Also outside of private trackers the autism isn't as much of a problem (see yify).

>Torrenters don't rip their music from YT
Nobody would ever admit to it but they are all doing it.
>Nobody would ever admit to it but they are all doing it.
Albums almost never come out first on YouTube (if they even upload the full albums at all) so that's usually impossible, because someone who bought the disc or the iTunes, Amazon, Tidal, Deezer etc release will upload it first.
Worded it wrong, you don't buy music from Tidal and Deezer, but you get the idea. Devices still have analog 3.5mm jacks so a total lack of downloading ability won't matter.

No. You can modify content you can legally access. You cannot bypass access controls.

The DMCA makes no mention of your definition of "private."
There do not need to be multiple protection schemes for any one to be protected. A copyright holder can leave one method open while protecting another without voiding the protection of the second. You are not allowed to decide for yourself that you are entitled to a copy.
I am not entitled, so I found a way around it.
You literally make a copy to watch it. Technology illiterates are so stupid and tiresome.

>I guess the same would still apply though
Yes, but youtube changes their api often while most other sites do not. It could still work for basically everywhere but youtube for some time yet
Perhaps they will just fork it or host it themselves

I don't see how they have any legal case at all.

Literally just a scare tactic and Github is complicit in being a piece of shit. Big corps just abusing thier power again. Fuck them.
It circumvents Youtube's download prevention measures.

Then what are you complaining about? You certainly have no need for youtube-dl.
By your logic, if I made a script that automated the process for me, that is illegal. Obviously, it is not illegal, and therefore neither is youtube-dl. You fucking literally piece of shit.

>that's like hypothetocally trying to take down qbittorrent
No it's not, just as it's not like trying to remove the copy command from Windows. Neither involve circumventing copyright protection systems.

youtube-dl doesn't circumvent any protection systems
it just replicates what an internet browser does when requesting a video stream

I have never paid for any form of digital media during the 30 years I've been alive and I never will.

Now be a good goy and keep buying shit that I will get for free, cuck.
How do I into secret clubs & private servers?
How much will a server cost me per year (maintenance, upgrades)?
private trackers need some initial determination to get into, and maybe some seedboxing to build up a buffer. Also consider donating, for $5-$10 one-time most let go of the inactivity rule for your account. Then it's smooth sailing

You can buy this software, but you also can build it from sources. The way of payment like a service or stuff like that does not compatible with nature of data and digital. All fucking copyrighters adapt old ideo of payment for physical world for intangible things. It is like geocentric system
agreed
Anon, we are fucking Legion. I think it's very degrading sign to community of free software. Let's DDoS or other damage to fucking copyrighters.
>DDoS Google
You have fun with that.
No bro, now it is RIAA
RIAA isn't an internet business, so...
But we need to create sign of disagreement. We need to appear, and say fuck you.
Why don't they DMCA browsers? They can be used to download copyrighted stuff illegally too after all
Bravo monopolies.
Uou can't just host peer-to-peer video because no one will watch it and if you post on YouTube, you are a slave to them and their ads.
I'd rather be a slave to my viewers desu, but not everyone can cough up a shekel for each """""creator""""" they deem worthy.
rip wintoddlers who now have no place to download their exe from
Literally from their website.
oh i had no idea they had a website
They don't, he's shitposting. (Anyone can make a website, but you need proof that it's legit.)
dumbass
https://youtube-dl.org/
How about you read my post again, retard.
That's their official website linked from their old github page, dumbass.
>linked from their old github page
Sure, sure. And conveniently, that page doesn't exist anymore. Sounds legit.
youtube-dl.org and yt-dl.org redirect to the same webpage
here's an archive of their repository with yt-dl.org in the readme file
https://web.archive.org/web/20200708210230/https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl
Props for the effort. BTW, it's the same exe that's on that sendspace link.
shit's been common knowledge for everyone who even uses the program on the regular.
how are you this ignorant?
Not that guy, but youtube-dl.org always was the shitty front end of them. Keep it calm.
>she doesn't know about scoop
So they are claiming against a tool that basically does the same thing a browser does? It's literally just mimicking what the YouTube player deis and gives you a file instead of playing it in-browser.
Practically speaking nothing illegal is happening, maybe TOS breaking but that's not what's being claimed. This is massive amounts of retard right here.
I don't give a fuck about music, music videos, late night shows, movie trailers, teasers, actor interviews, basically anything produced by "big media" or members of RIAA, being on youtube.
Let them fuck out to Google Play Music:tm: , Google Play Video:tm: , or some other God forgotten Google Play Unwanted Media App:tm: .
And then let normal youtubers post their content undisturbed, and normal users watch it.
Blyat.
Niggers, youtube-dl was abandoned and no longer accepting pull requests. Why are people acting like its the end of the world no one cared about the project 1 week ago.
Youtube-dlc was created and actually merging pull requests but for some reason mirrors of youtube-dl are being rehosted.
So streamlink is going to get taken down too?
Nah.
To further this, they are not retarded. They used Bug Buck Bunny for their test:
https://github.com/streamlink/streamlink/blob/master/tests/plugins/test_youtube.py
they're still retarded for baking in the plugin which clearly states youtube.com into the same repo as the core app. if riaa gets their dmca through then it's a green light to take down everything which can be used to download from youtube.
Not as popular despite being much better
So no
Some of you guys are alright. Don't come to the RIAA headquarters tomorrow.

Bitch when I'm slumped on the sofa at the end of a hard day's work, and I mean ACTUAL work, I just want something I can click, not a command-line application that forces me to go sit at my desk
Fuck off, CLI ain't any better when I just use it to type one command and go to sleep while my shits downloading.
Thumbnails are necessary for some channels. I've considered switching away from CLI just for that.

Does anyone get this error when you download from the Official URL: youtube-dl.org and select Latest? (http://abf-downloads.openmandriva.org/ytdl)
Works on my machine
looks like my ISP has shitty peering.
Start using a VPN
FUCK AMERIFATS
The real question is why would someone even bother uploading copyrighted material that they dont want distributed later on YouTube? YouTube is a video based social media site where shit is meant to go viral and be spread around. It should be treated similar to nudes, threats, racist posts, drug procurement, etc.. Don't put that shit out there if you don't want people finding out about it and keeping record of it. If you want to use the internet to communicate with a closed group of people or a single person, then use the right tools for small group communication, encrypt your shit, only share what you need to share, and limit the conversation to trusted parties.
I'd like to think all the anti-piracy posts are bait but this site has become such a piece of shit that no doubt many people genuinely respect copyright lmao.
Cute Dia
How retarded do you have to be to put the word YOUTUBE in the name of your program? It's like screaming "dmca me daddy"
>How retarded do you have to be to put the word YOUTUBE in the name of your program? It's like screaming "dmca me daddy"
youtube-dl has been around a long time. The retarded bit was not renaming it, once it became popular and once Jewgle started getting litigious
Jewgle retired Play Music in favour of YouTube Music just yesterday
coincidence?
This shit doesn't make sense at all. They are censoring source codes now? What the fuck?
What's next, qBittorent?
Github needs to be canceled. Maybe we should all move to Bitbucket or something? Or perhaps maybe Gogs since it's self-hosted and thus more difficult to sue?
I can record a YouTube-dl by watching it while turning a screen recorder on
Does that mean the screen recorder is circumventing technological protections?
Is DMCA going to remove all screen recording softwares from Github?
All of those Youtube videos are publicly streamed. How is this lawsuit even a thing? This is crazy

They're desperate and they hold this unrealistic belief that they can make more money when they harass their own customer base. Common misconception.
>the official site got updated with download links and a notice on the DMCA bullshit
I'm hopeful.
>>78354678
alright, so how are they claiming that youtube-dl's purpose is for redistributing material?
claiming that downloading to a convenient format ("convenient" to separate it from the fact that playing youtube "normally" still downloads the content, streaming is just a constrained form of downloading, after all, there's no technical difference from youtube's perspective) is somehow facilitating distribution is absurd
as absurd as claiming a file compression utility facilitates distribution because smaller files are faster to upload
