RedditSave/SaveVideo is Back

Pinned

Not sure why I can't crosspost. Original post here

As you might know, I posted an update yesterday about shutting down the services.

Reddit has confirmed to me that the notice did not originate from them.

With that being said, I have restored all the bot/website's services back to normal.

The story

Apparently, a third-party with malicious intent impersonated Reddit and issued a fake take-down notice to my hosting provider.

Citing a list of violations, the fake take-down notice instructed that I take down my services within 3-4 days or face a lawsuit. It also threatened $1M USD compensation for bandwidth consumption.

I informed users of the new development and proceeded to halt the services.

The PDF document of the the fake notice:

Link to the fake notice

With a lot of media attention which I did not expect, I would like to clarify once again that it has been confirmed that the Take-down notice and lawsuit threat did not come from Reddit Inc., but rather from an impersonator.

I appreciate everyone for their love, support and concern.

My apologies to Reddit and everyone whom my update might have caused issues for.I appreciate Reddit for being so helpful.

As a young software developer with a lot ahead. I would not want anything to jeopardize my future.
Thank you.

It reminds me of all the dumb-asses virulently insulting Reddit and u/spez in the shutdown thread.

Anyway, welcome back u/SaveVideo !

Reddit wouldnt email you about that they would slide in A. Your Dms, or B just straight up terminate your account not to be a jerkwad but from previous experiences, just contact support if u get a red flag
