it is the (correct) github response to DMCA, then let the dispute process happen.

I don't own the repo, but i do hope the owners of the repo dispute it, because the takedown has no real leg to stand on.

Doesn't really matter. It's moved to a Russian Github clone, so YMMV: https://gitflic.ru/user/magnolia1234

You're wrong, it's actually the exact URL posted on twitter:

Yep it's on their Twitter account, and linked in multiple places on their GitHub repos....

Bypass Paywalls Clean has moved here btw, https://github.com/bpc-clone?tab=repositories

It moved to a Russian equivalent of GitHub or Gitlab (because of where its hosted, YMMV): https://gitflic.ru/project/magnolia1234/bpc_uploads

Got the dmca takedown, got freaked out, I don't even remember I had clicked on fork this repo.
compuguy · 2 years ago
Yes, same here. Forgot about the fact I forked the iamadamdev/bypass-paywalls-chrome at some point. Reading the notice, it looks like they are going after all forks and derivatives of this addon, including the "clean fork" here: https://github.com/bpc-clone. Also looks like they got rid of the filters list here: https://github.com/bpc-clone/bypass-paywalls-clean-filters

Update: looks like the clean fork is hosted here. https://gitflic.ru/project/magnolia1234/ (It's hosted in Russia, so YMMV).

Which directs you to https://gitflic.ru/project/magnolia1234/bpc_uploads which is not ideal...
compuguy · 2 years ago
I agree. Though there is a counterpoint that a Russian host isn't going to respect a DMCA request. On the flipside it's a Russian replacement for Github that is based on Gogs, Gitea, or even Forgejo possibly. So yeah, YMMV.

Yes, but it may be taken down via DMCA soon. See this DMCA request: https://github.com/github/dmca/blob/master/2024/08/2024-08-0...

It mentions bpc_updates in the takedown request....
