This seems like a pretty straightforward and easily winnable situation for GitHub. The demand for their services just doubled, apparently. They have no real competitor operating at the scale they’re at. They have pretty substantial network effects. They are under no obligation to continue functioning as a bottomless free repository for text file hosting, especially now that text file creation has multiplied exponentially. They could make a few almost purely commercial changes and solve this without any major re-engineering while maintaining their status as the go-to public / open source code hosting platform. 1. Immediately increase pricing of all enterprise licenses and add super-committer overage fees. 2. Rate limit or cap commit size / frequency for public accounts. Their service is more valuable than ever and switching is much harder if people have automation built up on their platform. Now is the time to cash in their chips. And the positive externality of increasing commit cost would be forcing people to have some semblance of restraint for the AI content they generate.
