A simple Telegram bot made with [python-telegram-bot](https://github.com/python-telegram-bot/python-telegram-bot) and [youtube-dl](https://youtube-dl.org/) to download YouTube videos.

This was a weekend hack project.

The Telegram API doesn't allow for uploading files larger than 50MB, so this will copy the file to a webserver and send the user a link that expires after 60 minutes. The link has a SHA-256 hash of the filename and Telegram username, and the web server should disallow file listing (and set a robots.txt to disallow search engines as well). Given that the links only live for 60 minutes, this should be sufficient.
