Recently, they deleted the GitHub account and moved their installers back to the official website. Same with 7-Zip, developers moved their downloads from the official website to GitHub. You're right that the redirect for the download URL shouldn't have been changed, since WinGet can handle redirects by itself, but I done this purely to reduce the amount of 301 URLs (as well as majority of the 302 URLs) where some 301 URLs were incorrectly flagged as 200 by cURL or Wget, but were actually 404 - i.e. Though, all URLs in this repository are being scanned regularly by various scripts, and if a particular URL doesn't work or if the SHA256 hash does not match, we can easily fix it by looking for a new download link from the official website or official release distribution. You'll simply just get 404 Not Found or 403 Forbidden. If the publisher no longer uses and moves to hosting their downloads on Google or Amazon, then that will definitely be an issue because the URLs won't work anymore and there's nothing for the website to redirect to. If a malicious person took over the bucket, the hash would likely change and then no one can install it until the hash is fixed in the package where it has to go through automatic and manual validation again as well as automated and manual virus checks, and then the database will be updated with the new changes. shouldn't be a huge issue here as the only person that has control over that bucket right now is the CodeSector developers, and no one else is allowed.
Is a temporary redirect to, so your concerns about but it could be changed at any point by whoever controls the bucket.
