Go read up on Github user: CoralineAda [1][2] Then consider that GitHub hired her. I would not be surprised if the this automated script and her employment were directly related.

- zeveb 10y ago> Then consider that GitHub hired her. I'm not terribly surprised. GitHub is, after all, a company which changed its logo to celebrate a highly political U.S. Supreme Court decision and which has had issues with left-wing racism (http://www.businessinsider.com/github-the-full-inside-story-2016-2 http://www.businessinsider.com/github-the-full-inside-story-...).
- duaneb 10y agoI really don't want this to be a witch hunt (not seeing that here, just wary of pointing out individuals)—this is exactly the type of thing a business should take responsibility for as a whole. This was a process failure, IMHO.
- pille 10y agoExactly. The point of my comment was just that automation is no excuse for this kind of thing. For me it's still about the organization, and singling out individuals is about as productive as yelling at customer support on the phone.
- explorigin 10y agoI think you guys missed my point. In pointing out one individual, I was pointing to the organization as a whole. Github supports this kind over-sensitive social-activism. Example A: dragnet language-police script. Example B: hiring controversial, social-activists.
