The DRM removal tool to remove DRM from ebooks was taken down from github and will most likely be taken down from gitlab soon as well. The more archives we have the better so im sharing the gitlab in hopes some Datahoarder types will archive it and keep it shared via torrents etc https://gitlab.com/bipinkrish/DeGourou

Heres an article about why it was taken down https://torrentfreak.com/internet-archive-targets-book-drm-removal-tool-with-dmca-takedown-230714/

Edit: does anyone here use https://radicle.xyz/ ? Its a p2p network built on top of git and could be a good way to host it while still being able to contribute to it besides making a .torrent for archiving

    Imagine being so entitled that you think you have a right to others’ work for free.

      Why do people join communities for things they hate just to shit on everyone? Are you addicted to being angry?

        I didn’t join anything. It’s just at the top of my “all” feed.

        I speak out because the sense of entitlement among people in this community is fucking insane.

          Piracy is more often then not a symptom of the problem rather than a problem itself.

          For example, game piracy was much more common prior to steam as it was just much much more convenient to pirate at that time.
