> Why not? What about the (currently in use) github user names such as `hacker` or `virus`? Not sure, but I wouldn't be shocked if they are at risk themselves, those aren't exactly great either. I'm also not GitHub, nor do I care if they end up getting in trouble for those names either. > The whole point of the account was to publish things that I didn't deem worthy of my other accounts. Then you shouldn't really be concerned what is or isn't your GitHub username then. > Having a terrible name was kind of the point. And thus "play stupid games, win stupid prizes" ended up being the result. QED.
