+The core aim of this project is to co-relate automation and efficiency to extract what is provided to a user on the internet. All content available through the project is hosted by external non-affiliated sources. 
+
+<br>
+
+<b>All content served through this project is publicly accessible. If your site is listed in this project, the code is pretty much public. Take necessary measures to counter the exploits used to extract content in your site.</b>
+
+Think of this project as your normal browser, but a bit more straight-forward and specific. While an average browser makes hundreds of requests to get everything from a site, this project goes on to only make requests associated with getting the content served by the sites.
+
+<b>
+
+This project is to be used at the user's own risk, based on their government and laws.
+
+This project has no control on the content it is serving, using copyrighted content from the providers is not going to be accounted for by the developer. It is the user's own risk.

+<h2>DMCA and Copyright Infrigements</h3>
+
+<br>
+
+<b>
+
+A browser is a tool, and the maliciousness of the tool is directly based on the user.
+</b>
+
+
+This project uses client-side content access mechanisms. Hence, the copyright infrigements or DMCA in this project's regards are to be forwarded to the associated site by the associated notifier of any such claims. This is one of the main reasons the sites are listed in this project.

+<b>Do not harass the developer. Any personal information about the developer is intentionally not made public. Exploiting such information without consent in regards to this topic will lead to legal actions by the developer themselves.</b>
