I wonder how many times they take down PoCs for other companies’ software under the same terms?

I’m also dubious about how many complaints they received from non-Microsoft users. I wish they would post data on these kinds of complaints to know if “many” is 2 or 2,000.

I like GitHub a lot, and think Microsoft’s purchase has been really beneficial. But taking down legal and appropriate projects is bad and they shouldn’t do it.

More reasons to automirror everything to GitLab.

More proof that you can't and shouldn't trust Microsoft especially Github

Because they want to limit the availability of instructions to hack their product for now?

One reason it might have been made public is because Microsoft may have ignored them.

It happened to Facebook.

PoC is already out there, what's the benefit of removing one instance of it from some page?
