End of Github for me. I won't use it if I can't trust their stuff. Period.

It's disappointing to see how easily hackers ruined that, people's trust in the repository. Honestly I can't think it's not aimed to kill their bussiness, probably fueled by some competitor.

But yeah, the bad guys won and easily. I'm disappointed at those who should be protecting their users better. But it seems they're out powered.
