I just went through the comments ... people are losing their shit. And as always whenever Germany is mentioned, Godwin's Law is in full effect.
Apparently nobody remembers the very American and very similar youtube-dl takedown which ended in youtube-dl's favor. tl;dr: website owners cannot tell people how to read their websites.
DON'T PANIC nothing has happened, and it won't for years.
