It's probably risky to distribute or use it in the US (since it's a
circumvention device, which is prohibited under the DMCA, and that
interpretation's been confirmed by a judge; although that's presently
under appeal). AIUI, though, there's no legal issues with it in the
Netherlands, so there's no issues uploading it to non-US/main.

non-US/main.
