The following is a partial copy of the news originally written by Abhishek Prakash and published at It’s FOSS. The original news was made available under the CC BY-SA 4.0 license.
The open source project youtube-dl is one of the best tools to download videos from YouTube and many other video hosting websites.
But the existence of this project is under threat right now. Recording Industry Association of America, Inc. (RIAA) sent a notice to GitHub against youtube-dl and its forked repositories on 23 Oct 2020.
Microsoft owned GitHub complied immediately and within 24 hours, the official youtube-dl and its forked repository were disabled as DMCA takedown.
