I'd understand the argument if GitHub was an opinion news site of some kind, but the fact is that it's a place where code is shared, code used to create software.
GitHub is a US company but so are many others. To say github is "pushing" to Americanize the world and trump local communities is either foolish or a complete misunderstanding of what github does.
I don't mean to be a jerk but you're really missing the point here and barking up the wrong tree.
- vegabook 12y agoyes of course the choice to block Github is unfortunate, but I am making a wider point about the overwhelming dominance of the US in all things online, and that, clumsy as the execution may be, one might want to try to understand the underlying issues behind these actions, even if they appear misguided.
