u/SaveVideo was a Reddit video downloader bot that helped users download and save videos from Reddit. The service was used by millions of people but according to its operator has now shut down following an ultimatum from Reddit. "The gods of Reddit have decided and I am obliged to obey or risk a lawsuit," SaveVideo announced yesterday. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Saving videos isnt illegal. They shouldnt have been posted to begin with.

This ban has nothing to do with legality and is solely Reddit trying to force you to link to its own page and use what is quite literally one of the worst video players on the internet.
Which is hilarious when you consider that so many of the videos that get posted in the first place *are* stolen. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

I read the article. The SaveVideo creator makes reference to possible legal action but doesn't say who from. The reference to OF is about one or two other downloader bots, and the author of the article is just assuming it possibly applies to this one as well. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

hmmm this is an interesting one. not sure where i stand on the idea. i can see it both ways. i wonder why reddit would care so much though, AFAIK by now hardware costs for running video streaming should be pretty minimal these days. streaming services are battle hardened now. and more efficient than ever.

they could just default everyone to 1080p resolution and make a paid service if you want 4k or w/e.
that way there's reasonable free tiers and if you want api access included, for downloads, you can pay for the 4k service or something. make it an actual Reddit feature and other sites will follow. i could see api revenue at some point exceeding ad revenue for certain sites. --- It's obvious all religions are fundamentally true. ...

I feel like there's a bad storm brewing with these copyright freaks. One day I won't be surprised if you wake up and half of all YouTube videos are just wiped clean. Even if it's just a video like: "How to draw Mickey Mouse" that was created by a random artist, not Disney's property.
They'll all be gone one day. Anything that's tangentially related to the copyright will be gone. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!
