Scrapers Take Down GitHub: December 11 Outage Timeline

colinbartlett•16h ago
GitHub published a postmortem for yesterday's outage already, and the cause surprised me: They blame scrapers, or rather ONE specific scraper, for taking down GitHub for 7 hours.
mlhpdx•16h ago
They may not need to go so far as this to protect their service, but I would accept that any access required occasional authentication. Unfettered, unlimited anonymous access seems dubious in this “I’m taking all your content” AI training world.
TheCleric•10h ago
It would also be, in my opinion, very against the spirit of Open Source to require an account to download code for a piece of software.
bitbasher•5h ago
As if Microsoft/GitHub (closed source platform) care about open source or free software…
whatevaa•4h ago
The spirit of open source doesn't account for garbage scrappers using mass botnets.
