Thank you, but I need some more help. I've downloaded the script, but the README says that I need to supply "the T and Y cookie" and that I should be able to extract them from my browser.
My browser is Firefox. I've checked and it doesn't seem to provide a way to extract cookies. Apparently that requires installing an extension, and I don't know whether Debian provides that (I'd rather avoid installing random extensions from the Internet). Furthermore I don't know what "the T and Y cookie" are and how to find them among other cookies. Any help will be much appreciated.
