Reading this made my day. Thank you, from my heart, for this software - it is precious to me.
I have relied on it since 2002 as my everyday media player on every device I have ever built. I have evangelized whenever and wherever I can.

I know it's kind of funny to ask this, but have your parents received any weird legal mail from the Indian government that might be about the block?
lol. I actually checked with them :)

A fun conversation to imagine. "How's your health? The family? Have you gotten any mail about my project being a Chinese cyber weapon? No? Well, that's confusing."

Clearly VideoLAN isn’t trying hard enough!
/s, in jest, in case that isn’t clear haha
When the project got this large, I'd say it's safer to use an actual business address before too late than a private one as any weird people may target your parents' house for no good reason.
Wayyy tooo late for that.
Not sure if your parents even feel comfortable?
It's never too late than never?
No one cares :)

This is just awesome to hear. I have been using VLC since I was a kid. Love your work.
I greatly appreciate the resource you've built for everyone. Thank you!
Thanks for all of your hard work and for not selling out. I love you folks.
It is a French non-profit whose address is my parents place :)
