It's weird that it doesn't distinguish between your commits and others'. I have one forked repo that I forked to fix a line in their docs, and it looks to all the world like I spent a time of time on it.

Negative datapoints are nearly completely useless in this scenario, as we only have ~8% of the leaked UDIDs. Think about it this way: there are more than 250m iOS devices in the world[1]. I think 300m is a good, conservative estimate. 12m (

That's fine, but the author explicitly stated that the article was written because "the vast majority of developers react to all these things." My point was that this statement seems to me to be untrue.
