Maybe I am using the wrong technology for the right idea here, in my statement. What I’m really trying to get at is, wouldn’t we benefit greatly from having decentralized control over git hosting? Ideally then, The People decide what happens with it as a public resource — not a fickle technology company with competing interests and revolving management.
The solution should be immune to DMCA takedown requests, IMO.
Edit: I’ve never really thought about it… but decentralized hosting could seriously mess with IP laws, couldn’t it? Leaks can be done in a way that they cannot be undone.
