Github has done a lot to move the conversation from free software to open source.
"Open source" is now this thing companies do. It's now a PR and marketing trick, or sometimes an attempt to get free labor selfishly.
It is no longer about user's rights and freedom. Github has been a huge part of the slow bleedout of the free software movement.
I think this is the true damage that the combination of Github and "open source" companies have done to the software ecosystem.
