I guess I have to ask: is this a legal grey area? The UK claims sharing of things like Netflix passwords is illegal[0]. That said, people pay for Netflix, so they wouldn't be dumping those creds on sites like this for all to plunder.

But I still think we need more of these 'skeleton key' type sites, not just one. It's great that it's open source and on GitHub[1] and I encourage as many people as possible to host their own instance.

We can't afford another BugMeNot type shutdown. The Internet needs these types of sites badly, even though it's a possible legal grey area (Don't forget pass sharing is forbidden in some ToS).
