Some days, like today, I regret commenting TorrentFreak out of my RSS feed reader.
It’s kind of funny, but it’s also kind of scary that not having access to Github would probably significantly impact a lot of companies and services. It would definitely impact me.
The TorrentFreak article might have more information; I skimmed it. I don’t live in India, so I don’t know. Apparently, only the raw.githubusercontent.com domain was blocked, so Indian users should have still been able to access the main github.com domain. It’s the direct link to the files that was apparently blocked. But cloning repositories probably wasn’t affected?

It is block? I think it was my Internet issue. Fuck. I hate this type of bullshit. But I can download some file from raw url?
