- ethomson 9y agoYou're technically correct, which is of course the best kind of correct. But it's not quite so easy. I can't speak for any other Git hosting service, of course, but if you have a private repository in Microsoft Visual Studio Team Services then: - all engineers are given a background check before being hired - very few engineers have access to production servers or databases, only those who have an operational neccesity - engineers that do have production access are given a still stricter background check Certainly we don't have private repository just lying around, and yes we do treat them like they're your financial data. Microsoft hosts all of its source code in VSTS, including Windows. This is data that we absolutely want to protect. Our customers' data is no different.
