This is a good opportunity to remind everyone that when you are using an SaaS cloud solution instead of self-hosting, you are essentially subject to a digital landlord without any renters protection. A landlord who can, and will, kick you out to the curb whenever he deems doing so more profitable.

i'm at an ai summit for my work, we're doing a hackerthon on abusing ai agents we develop.

i attempted to fork the dummy repository and was met with "You are unable to fork this repository at this time"; after this my co-worker went to view my profile and found that it 404s to anyone who is not logged in as my user.

went to submit a ticket to support.github.com & it redirected me to a specific reinstatement request support flow; wonderful.

i yearn for the day my company moves away from github and uses literally anything else, likely will be soon after this.
