"Widevine Dump":Leaked Code Downloads HD Video from Disney+, Amazon, and Netflix

This is one of those github repositories that you just clone and move on.

Don't fork, just clone to your local system. When it gets taken down the forks will disappear, whereas the clones will not. You can also just download a zip file.

"Making an imaginary-ish copy that stays on the big Microsoft-owned system is mostly unnecessary and probably not enough to keep it around, make sure you save a copy on your own computer that they can't get to."

Don't want to be (too) condescending, but, as an old-timer it's kind of wild to me that people who work with tech a lot do actually sometimes need to be reminded of this.

Okay, I know I might be breaking some kind of HN rule here, but I'm super genuinely curious as to why the downvotes here. Seriously. Is it "because people already know and I'm being condescending?" Is it "No, they shouldn't do this and instead allow the code to be censored?" Where are y'all going with this?

> Don't want to be (too) condescending

was what did it for me. basically claiming superiority prior to any actual engagement/discussion.

:) Fair.
