Why does it matter if the company is right? What I wonder is what remedy all the people who complain about privately owned communication infrastructure are actually asking for? For instance, this site is moderated and you will be banned if you break the rules - would you make that illegal?
- inawarminister 4y agoThe main issue is that GitHub is used by OP's company as a work service. There should be expectation that if a company is still trusting someone as an employee - then for WORK he should be allowed to use whatever business tools the company he's employed in has paid. Imagine, if you will - a financial analyst getting banned from Bloomberg Terminal due to some issues in Bloomberg.com. Isn't that silly?
- hotpotamus 4y agoI find most aspects of social media silly, and combining it with a git repository especially so. But I still don't understand what it is that people want here - to use the government (as Libertarians would say, men with guns) to force Bloomberg to sell their services to that financial analyst?
- Dylan16807 4y agoKeep in mind that corporations are artificial legal constructs. If the government wants to put rules on companies with thousands of employees, that's very different from putting rules on people.
