Even the Discord and Buymeacoffee page got taken down. This is larger than any other DMCA I know of

Edit: even the Telegram has been nuked. Yup, Telegram

They should upload the code on an .onion page

But hiding an onion address's IP is very hard. No?

No. That's literally the point of it.

Nobody would use the app then because nobody know of it and people would download viruses.

They could make their own F-droid repository to be easily accessible to users

[–] newIdentity@sh.itjust.works 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Doesn't really fix the issue if it's only available over Tor or I2P.

The F-droid repository would be in the clear net I believe, I may be wrong, but it's way more unlikely that it would get shut down IMO, it doesn't get much traffic as a web page

That really doesn't change that they have to comply with DMCA requests.
