the current top trending repo on github is https://github.com/sikaozhe1997/Xin-Yue, which is regarding a sensitive case in China.<p>A portion on the issues is arguing whether should this kind of repo use Github as the discussions platform
In my opinion, it shouldn't be used that way. But people have few choices. If a server is within the country, it gets controlled by the government. For servers outside the country, all blogs and forums are censored. Only those utility sites are accessible, because otherwise companies can't operate. They will be a bit more cautious on censoring those sites. That's why they started DDOS on those sites to force them to remove those contents.<p>p2p forums/social networks should be a better solution.
What about a decentralized p2p github? Or ZeroNet type of github?<p><a href="https://github.com/cjb/GitTorrent" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/cjb/GitTorrent</a>
