Sorry, I'm going to nit-pick the nit... 2021, 2022, that's two full years, and June 2023 makes it also half of 2023. That's one and a half years more than Centos 8, and it's more than two full years from the current date

I've been in a situation before where "the boss" demands this configuration, an easy password so everyone can remember it, and it's the keys to the kingdom, and everything you need to get admin access to the whole thing.

There are fair use rights that are not able to be satisfied without a copy. You can assert all of that, but unless you have some landmark precedent to cite that agrees with what you're arguing, I'd like to hear a court decide on t

I haven't seen anyone else making this argument yet, but yes! Chunk by chunk, streamers copy bits into their buffers and discard them as they are done watching. Is that discarding required, when the same companies can charge extra for

This case is going to be really interesting if it goes to court, but right now it's not in court. The letter makes two claims, "copyright infringement" which might be substantiated by the readme, (but not against youtube-dl a

Copyright included fair use and the courts ruled that a balance for fair use must be maintained for the monopoly rights of copyright to be enforced, but congress wrote the DMCA and said "nah"? Yeah I'm gonna need to hear that

For sure, that is the argument they will have to make! As a counter-argument, what if I paid for my youtube premium membership though, to avoid the advertising, and really what I want to do is to location-shift within the bounds of the law,

The mention of the copyrighted work eg. "Taylor Swift" does not lay out a case of infringement. Merely possessing a copy does not indicate infringement, you could be in pursuit of your fair use rights, with no intention to share.

Taking a copy does not affect the potential market of the copyrighted work in any way. Sharing a copy is another matter. Youtube-dl facilitates taking a copy only, it is not a tool for sharing. This case is substantially different than Naps

If this content is freely available, why can't we take a fair use copy? That is not a violation of copyright. (Even if it is entertainment / not educational.) Those are the terms of the deal, we made when we enshrined copyright in

by yebyen 6y ago
I don't think it does. Just because there are copyrighted works in the test cases, doesn't mean they are willfully in violation of copyright. If I am granted a license by Youtube to view this material, then is it not also fair use

GitHub has voluntarily complied with this (bad IMHO) law. If that were true, and frivolous requests were being made and dismissed routinely, then GitHub might curb their voluntary "compliance" machine. Is that actually happening,

It makes both a copyright claim and a claim about circumvention devices. I don't agree, as you don't, that the copyright claim is valid, youtube-dl git repo clearly isn't hosting any copyrighted materials owned by the RIAA me

As I said, I am not a lawyer and you may have out-lawyered me here already, but I'll do my best to respond. The law prescribes this path for youtube-dl authors to respond to the claim, if youtube-dl authors want to put their names behi

by yebyen 6y ago
That may be true, but this is not a claim on YouTube, (or the case of many frivolous claims made by these same RIAA folks on YouTube, that I know we're both thinking about.) There is no advertising sold on GitHub that I am aware of, an

That's exactly how it works. The content carrier is on the hook to be responsive to DMCA takedown requests, and they are ~allowed~ (actually, also required) to be responsive to counter-notices as you describe. Their responsibility begi

So I went ahead and allowed myself to ask, "why is it called HATETRIS" and tried it out without reading anything first. This has been a wonderful rollercoaster, thank you for sharing and pointing this out :D I only played the game

The math works out if you presume that 20% or more of that 1.5% is converted into a paying customer. If I was using GitLab that much and could pay $20 to support GitLab but wasn't already a paid subscriber, I probably would think about
