hace 3 días, el creador del vine helper ha publicado esto:
In an attempt to further curb the bot issues, I have decided to make the VineHelper's repository private. (No longer open source project). As with all measures I've implemented along the years, this won't make botting impossible, but is one more complication to dissuade bad actors. That being said, contributors to the project are still very welcome
- Collaborators will need to have concrete features implementation in mind to be granted access. I welcome all skill levels and I'm happy to help least experienced programmers with a good idea.
- Auditors will need to be qualified, have a list of specific goals and will be asked to make their findings report public.
- Testers, (which there are surprisingly very few at the moment) will need to be qualified, as in able to setup, keep their installation up to date. They will be expected to:
- provide regular feedback and bug reproduction methodologies;
- provide javascript errors when encountering issues;
- be reasonably available to test new features as they are implemented; and
- perform assisted debugging tasks if an issue is not easy to reproduce
Note: This does not mean that the contributors will be limited to their scope. The entirety of the client codebase will be made available and they are free to explore anything they want, but I want to ensure I'm not giving access to people who are just looking at forking the code for their own malicious purpose and perform no actual contributions.
Por supuesto todo muy transparente verdad? Vamos que ya nadie podrá ver el código fuente a menos que sea colaborador, y los colaboradores y testers tendrán que rendir cuentas al creador en todo momento de todo lo que vayan encontrando. No solo eso sino que además se demuestra que no es el proyecto único sino de todo un equipo que trabaja en el por "amor al arte". Luego al final pone la excusa de que esto es por la seguridad de los usuarios, y yo respondo con un sonoro JA!
lo dicho, como el buscador duckduckgo que se filtró que enviaba incluso más datos que google a todo tipo de terceros, ya caerá la breva ya...
