.@github seems to have banned @vmfunc's account over opening an off-topic PR on the linux kernel
Suspending an active account like this with a ton of open source activity is unacceptable
Help get the word out there and make as much noise as possible
hello @github why did my account get suspended???
i have been using github for years and have never done anything that goes against the TOS on this platform
a lot of very sensitive repos are on my account, and there is no way i can even log in to back them up.

Yesterday a video game streamer named @rastalandTV inadvertently livestreamed themselves being a victim of a cryptodraining campaign.
This particular spearphishing campaign is extraordinarily heinous because RastaLand is suffering from Stage-4 Sarcoma and is actively seeking donations for their cancer treatment. They lost $30,000 of the money which was designated for their cancer treatment. In the steam clip their friend tries to console them while they cry out, "I am broken now."
They were contacted by an unknown person who requested they play their video game demo (downloadable from Steam). In exchange for RastaLand playing their video game demo on stream, they would financially compensate them.
Unfortunately, the Steam game was actually a cryptodrainer masquerading as a legitimate video game.
