Suggested change
- All such requests will be clsoed and submitters will be blocked from the repository.
- All such requests will be closed and submitters will be blocked from the repository.

- You should be able to explain every part of the code you have written/modified in your PR.
- If you do not understand your PR, **do not** submit it. You cannot use an AI tool to generate code for you.

The aim of this policy is to improve the work of maintainers and contributors. AI contributions waste their time and efforts, so please understand that such submissions are a waste of the effort they put into maintaining this project.

The rationale behind this policy is that automated contributions are a waste of the maintainers' time. Humans spend their time and brainpower reviewing every submission. Issues or pull requests generated by automation tools create an imbalance of effort between the submitter and the reviewer. Nobody learns anything when a maintainer reviews code written by an LLM.

Suggest word-for-word copy of YT-DLP. It fits better. Unlicense allows us to copy.
