Attached: 3 images tldr: GitCode or China is attempting to mirror/clone the entire GitHub over to their own servers and there's nothing you can do about it, even if your license somehow disagrees with it. Apparently China now has their own GitHub/public Git repository hosting service called GitCode; it is owned and operated by CSDN under the company name "重庆开源共创科技有限公司". It is being reported that many users' repository are being cloned and re-hosted on GitCode without authorization - meaning your project may very well be on this service without you explicitly allowing.

GitCode, a git-hosting website operated Chongqing Open-Source Co-Creation Technology Co Ltd and with technical support from CSDN and Huawei Cloud.

    Hahahahahahahaha, oh man, how much you spend on a psychologist every month?

    Also, what you’re doing is called sophistry, specifically moving the goal posts (which predates the US by about 1000 years).

    You later move on to attacking the person, rather than the argument (more sophistry).

    You should probably educate yourself lest you expose the clown inside.
