Links to files that no longer exist, could do with an update, a note to say, "The following files will have to be found else where due to legal reasons", and then kill the links.
Must be a nightmare to keep this stuff updated, so my hat goes off to you sir for sorting.

Just what this site needs, a volunteer.
Currently, there are six models of Kindle devices actively supported by Amazon.
As of the 31st of this month, there will be seven.
(Number to be adjusted by the models Amazon my drop active support on by or at that time.)
Those 6 (or 7) devices might have any one of five (plus/minus a few rare exceptions) firmware versions installed.
None of those combinations can be jail broken (again, with the exception of a few rare instances).
That represents an audience increasing in size (as they are forced to adopt any of the newer firmware versions by OTA updates) that can no longer be in charge of the behavior of their purchased device.
I think that the best way your concerns can be addressed, is to have you do the write-up and interactive support of any newer jail break method that might be developed.
As can be seen in most of my more recent responses, after 15 months of this current one, I am more than just burnt out.
We definitely need a new personality (or personalities - I might have more than one) to take over this communications task.
In addition to the ongoing "war" with Amazon (Amazon behaves as if they believe they continue to own the behavior of a device after the sale and the people active here believe that they own both the device and its behavior after they make the purchase), there are international relation matters to be considered or ignored.
That includes countries where their native language does not have the word or words which express the concept of "collaboration".
Which brings us around to a more direct answer to your question of why the download links changed in their behavior recently.
