Looks like a contributor was in a sanctioned region?
Insane that Github blocked their entire development without discussing it with them though. Ban the contributor, not the entire open source project.
Sounds like an easy way to do unproportional damage to projects with a bit of location spoofing.
I was very surprised to learn that .NET has an entire team in North Korea
And all of them sharing a single 26k connection, too
I heard they got upgraded to DSL
Not according to that thread - it looks like they don't yet know what caused it:

GAFAM is all one hydra.
What's that?
A country the USA doesn't like
Seems so arbitrary that they just block the entire project instead of the user in the sanctioned region.
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Probably for the best, GitHub seems like a liability (to a lamen like me, anyway)
