Looks like the Github repo has already been nuked, I'm guessing for violating ToS on Github actions?

The website has a broken github link. Repo is here https://github.com/DO-SAY-GO/ghostbox-releases but it's only a README.md with binary releases. No public source code?

  • The readme says it’s proprietary code that’s free to use during a “preview”.

    Odd to be so tied to GitHub for proprietary code.

    • GitHub is one of the most readily accessible sources of parasitic compute resources.

  • Yeah this seems pretty sketch.. I would not run that binary.

    • I don't believe in releasing source anymore after years of doing it. It's closed source, Rust binary, proprietary but free software offered as a utility. It's the same patterns as used by coding agents and many other CLI tools.
