IANAL but I suggest everyone add a prominent note on their repo with a link to the page those sentences are from (on web.archive.org if need be), asserting that they consider those sentences to be part of the implied contract they made with GH when they created their account. Even if they are removed a more recent version. Or just move your code to an instance of , , , , , or something else before Microsoft takes possession of GH ...

@strypey iANAL? Is that from that south park episode? (jk)

@brandon it took me a few reads, but I get it. Actual LOL ;-P
