gollark: And that being a problem is caused by DMCA section 1201.
gollark: They don't seem to be going after it because of piracy (except possibly due to the poor examples in the README) but because it could maybe be used to violate copyright, and that being illegal is a DMCA issue.
gollark: It isn't. Without it, there would basically not be a case against youtube-dl at all.
gollark: Again, it's the DMCA which makes the maybe-usable-to-violate-copyright things problematic in the first place.
gollark: I'm not blaming Github, I just think the DMCA is an awful law because of this sort of thing.
