<p>Wasting scammers money seems like it's targeting itself in the right direction.<p>i used adnauseam a while ago. it clicked on about 1.5 million ads in half a year of usage.<p>Not sure i can give good reasoning for this, but it felt like doing the right thing. :)</p>

<p>The original Matrix was an exceptional Movie looking into the brain in a jar concept and even becoming an even more popular analogy to explain the concept. All the supernatural stuff happens within the matrix and still stays in the natural world.<p>I'm happy they never made a sequel where supernatural stuff happens in the real world. They still would have been worthwhile Hollywood action movies, but nothing like the original which was one of my favorite movies growing up.</p>

<p>There is a difference between unintended yet inevitable bugs and negligence.<p>Deliberately cheapening out on security because security researchers generally hold to a responsible disclosure procedure is not in the users interest.<p>This is not one of those inevitable bugs. This is an indicator that there maybe security issues littered throughout the system because no one cares.</p>

<p>I'm not sure i would have either. this is not not a security bug. this is pure negligence and doesn't deserve the courtesy IMHO.</p>

<p>I don't get why you where downvoted. the analogy is pretty accurate. knifes are utilities which can be used to kill. guns are made for killing only.<p>There are plenty of legitimate uses for youtube-dl. There is even fair use in the US. How can i make fair use, eg. remix or a commentary if i can't access the videos outside of youtube.</p>

<p>I don't agree with the faster and extremely simple to deploy points, at all. Both objections have to do with php-fpm.<p>it spawns a new php interpreter for every request, which means for example that symfony framework setup (routes, controllers, service dependencies...) have to run before every request. Sure it does that faster than python, but python only needs to do this once.<p>deployment is my personal nightmare. try to set the max children or whatever so concurrency is ok but memory does not run out. I mean facebook did it so it has to be possible but damn, that was hard to get `right`. Setting up logging is a mess. There is the application, the admin and the fpm error log, I gave up trying to have every log event logged exactly once. Segfaults are a common occurrence, still. I heard it mentioned just before leaving for vacation.</p>
