MoltenMonsterMedia scraper Gallery-dl is moving to Codeberg after receiving a DMCA notice
It's important to remember that these projects are not violating copyright law, are not circumvention tools, and that filing a DMCA notice against them is in fact unlawful.
Linking to piracy sites whose content is all blatantly stolen from artists does seem violating to me.
what piracy sites is gallery-dl linking to?
I do not want to promote them here, but if you read the linked github thread you will see the names of what extractors were deleted.
Wait a second... By the view you're espousing right now, doesn't that make this conversation "illegal"? Why aren't we filing DMCA takedowns to HN because the list of the naughty sites is at the top of the page for this very thread?
This seems like turtles all the way down.
