I mean if the end result is that no one can access the repos how is that not basically deleting them? Are we just arguing semantics because the end result is the same?
- kstenerud 3y agoThe difference is that deleting them would mean that they're gone forever, and if he didn't have backups he's screwed. Shadowbanned means that he can still access his code and move it elsewhere even if he doesn't have backups. It also means that if he gets the shadow ban reversed, the code will once again be available. If it were deleted, that would not be possible.
- dont_dox_me_bro 3y agoThe user in question can't actually access his profile or his repos. He's not shadbowbanned, he is actually banned.

"When I log into my account, it's all there, the code, the issues, everything (read: shadowbanned) so once this is resolved it should be seamless for you." "It’s important to note I didn’t lose access to my account, all the repositories are there, issues, pull requests, stars but I’m effectively shadow banned, I’m the only one who can see it."
