I've verified that I'm running youtube-dl version 2020.11.29
I've searched the bugtracker for similar site feature requests including closed ones
Description
First, I want to say that I'm a computer science student. And I know how hard programming can be. And some time the websites change their behaviour. That causes youtube-dl to stop working on the specific website. Then someone has to analyse the behaviour of the website. So thanks to the maintainer and everyone who contributed to the youtube-dl project. And because youtube-dl is a very popular project. Sometime people create duplicate issue without using the search bar. For example, there are three issues about youtube-dl not working in ubuntu 20.04 because of the removal of python 2. I noticed that vk.py is last updated in 2016, so I believe it needs and deserve an update. And I believe it was only created to download videos not for music playlist when I looked at the code. Here is the error that I am getting.

Edit: It basically does the same thing as the original issue, but using it with a cookies.txt still causes the badbrowser message to take over. Additionally I tried spoofing the useragent (which youtube-dl probably already does but I wanted to try it anyways) and it still didn't fix. Of course downloading video from vk still works fine
