One take: #GitHub is a joke, a company that makes money (and influence) on top of open source but refuses to open source their software.
If I'm not mistaken this is a textbook case of [[enclosure]] of the Commons.
Another take: #GitHub has an interesting [[social impact]] programme: https://socialimpact.github.com/
> The Social Impact team empowers nonprofits and the greater social sector to drive positive and lasting contributions to the world with GitHub products, our brand, and our employees.
Another take: their [[Arctic Vault]] project seems potentially important and well thought out.
What are your takes on [[Github]] if you want to share them?
