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

      Ipfs has been around for like 7(?) Years and its still way too complicated for the average person. They made so many millions yet still can’t get apps with simple interfaces its quite astonishing

          Provably not the best idea to give developers millions and millions of dollars for an idea they don’t really care about with an almost non existent userbase since they have zero incentive to continue improving it or making it useable
