This wasn't a thorough deletion. The shadowsocks-iOS project has been switched to the 'rm' branch, but the 'master' branch still contains all the source code: https://github.com/shadowsocks/shadowsocks-iOS/tree/master https://github.com/shadowsocks/shadowsocks-iOS/tree/master There's also a downloadable 2.6.3 release with a built .dmg and source code: https://github.com/shadowsocks/shadowsocks-iOS/releases https://github.com/shadowsocks/shadowsocks-iOS/releases Even if it does get completely removed, a duplicate exists on GitLab: https://gitlab.com/mba811/shadowsocks-iOS https://gitlab.com/mba811/shadowsocks-iOS (No guarantee that it has all the commits prior to deletion, or that it hasn't been modified from the original in some way.) I can only hope the police in clowwindy's country don't know how to switch GitHub branches.

I don't know what you're talking about. That repo is totally empty. Nothing to see here, move along. ;)

Years ago, news said China "banned" bitcoin, years later miners in China live just fine. I guess this is not going to be so different.

  This is different. China(ese government) has a much, much stronger incentive and political resolution to reinforce their Internet speech control than crackdown a couple of bitcoin miners.

    > Implying bitcoin has nothing to do with free speech. I'm saying that the result is not going to be so different, as in people will still use shadowsocks to circumvent the firewall and won't get "disappeared" or whatsoever. Edit: letters

  The only thing that's "banned" regarding bitcoins in china is that financial institutions arn't allowed to trade them. You can mine them, you can set up companies that mine them, you can trade them if you're not a financial institution.

    Yes, it's more like regulation that poorly implemented. But less people knew it at the time according to what the news and bitcoin users in China said. As a result, news related to China still can impact the price greatly sometimes, which leads people ask has China really banned bitcoin or not? You could find many discussions in term of this at the time. Of course people by now understand the "ban" itself is limited.

    And as an aside they're the easiest way to exchange money when overseas. It's like a bank where the bank meets you at your hotel and gives you cash, and you never have to worry that your PIN won't work or your home bank will decide not to honor your transaction for fraud protection.

That duplicate will get flushed after they run the 'git pruned' on the 2AM cronjob. Nothing to worry about.

That mostly a side effect of GitHub's caching mechanism. It's all gone now.

  All of the links in the post you're replying to still work fine for me.

    No, it's not there. You must just be seeing something in your browser cache. It's all gone forever. cough wink cough

The last commit on the GitLab mirror is cf485148bd9f4d4520d13e2169997cd72464f3c0. On GitHub, it's not the last one, but it's on the first page (not that much commits since). Because it's the same SHA, and because of the way git works, we know that all the history before it is exactly the same on GitHub and GitLab.
