CNN USA Missing

[Split181]

Hello,

CNN USA is no longer appearing in the By County --> United States list. However, the direct link for the CNN USA stream is still active.

I note that another user has raised this issue and had it closed, referencing issue #16839 (DMCA Takedown notice from Warner Bros.).

Upon reading the notice I see it refers to the following CNN channels:
CNN Brasil (1080p) [Not 24/7]
CNN Chile (720p)
CNN en Español
CNN Indonesia (720p) [Geo-blocked]
CNN International Europe (720p)
CNN Pakistan
CNN Portugal (720p)
CNN Türk (720p)

however CNN USA is not mentioned in the listing so why was it removed ?

It doesn't matter, the full text of the DMCA takedown says it's for ALL stations owned by Warner Bros Discovery, not just the sample they provided to github, so it also includes CNN USA and others.

Unless you want this repository suspended from github, again, they can't put it back. And if you want that stream to still work without a token or DRM protection, you should probably stop openly linking to it in places their lawyers are now monitoring.
