They can twist public and developer interest in some groups, technologies and licenses and re-frame them for their own ends. This is a vital concern especially with a corp that routinely used their monopoly position to undermine startups in the press just so they could acquire the targeted firms' tech at cut rate prices later on. FWIW, I think maybe the need for open source projects to avoid github is not so acute, but vendors who use <a href=\"https://infosec.exchange/tags/github\" class=\"mention hashtag\" rel=\"tag\">#<span>github</span></a> for private projects should have their heads examined.</p>",
