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

Whoa, if this works it'll greatly ease my saving of rare books.. without having to reboot into Windoze to use the Adobe eBook crap and Calibre just to save an unencrypted version. Thanks!

The calibre (Alf) dedrm tool can work on Linux if you have your ADE set up on wine or on a windows partition
