### 2023.11.14
#### Important changes
- **The release channels have been adjusted!**
* [`master`](https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp-master-builds) builds are made after each push, containing the latest fixes (but also possibly bugs). This was previously the `nightly` channel.
* [`nightly`](https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp-nightly-builds) builds are now made once a day, if there were any changes.
- Disallow smuggling of arbitrary `http_headers`; extractors now only use specific headers
