nostr:npub1uv03t479sg8cqe2wrsm42xk2yenqa47qaea0ku38eyng7ceflnes9x9gkg I was wondering just a couple of days ago why the RIAA and the music mafia trio hadn't been harassing youtube-dl and its developers for a while.

It turns out that I just needed to wait a couple of weeks for the next (pointless) hostile act.

These acts only show how anachronistic and desperate the position of those industry dinosaurs has become - and why their extinction is long overdue.

Here you go with a piece of software whose source code has been cloned millions of time, forked thousands of times and whose repo is mirrored across dozens of servers.

But hey, the RIAA really thinks that if they shut down their main website (which doesn't even host the code) they can achieve something - as if it was 1999 and shutting down the Napster website means that nobody can download the exe!

Are some lawyers from the nostr:npub1sqfnxau480pnvm0t258kdrj5u2u72zwm2kh7tk3qf6lxtqkwvlmqgn5skr already on top of this?
