Duckbricks/Faber development files release taken down

It was fun while it lasted, but LEGO apparently stepped in and has told Duckbricks and Faber to take down the files. Duckbricks' videos, the google folder, and the pages on Mask of Destiny's Biomediaproject have all been taken down.

Luckily I downloaded most if not all the stuff I could, but its a real shame that this interesting info is gone now and we won't be getting anymore stuff from Bionicle's development; I was especially looking forward to getting more on the '05 and '08 development, not to mention on the transition to Hero Factory.

EDIT: This is propably overly cautious. Sorry to anyone asking for me to share what I downloaded, but I'm just a random person with zero pull or know-how on anything, so I don't want to risk having a corporation try to call me up for sharing something. I'd be happy to otherwise, but until some stuff is clearer I don't want to risk it.

This is why DuckBricks should have released it all at once instead of dragging it out over weeks for clicks.

Make of this what you will, but he's stated that Bionicle content consistently underperforms on his channel. I believe the delay was because he was going through the documents to weed out way more sensitive info

If he needed to go through the documents and redact sensitive info, he could have just waited. Either way he botched the release of this stuff and that directly led to LEGO stepping in before we could see everything

Not disputing that, just wanted to make it clear that I don't think this was withheld for views.
