Another weird thing about the whole situation, besides the reasons for the attack and reasons for it failing, there's a question - why github? Seems like a weird choice for a target. Github is neutral, and githib is unambiguously good. Aren't there better targets attacking which would have at least a semi-plausible excuse? I mean attacking github is like screaming "I'm evil". Besides if you want to "demonstrate your power", github is the worst choice for that purpose. They are likely to successfully fend off the attack, yet at the same time even if China would succeed it wouldn't have much to be proud of either(country vs a small company). It's a lose-lose....
