Totally expected from the minute one after Microsoft buy the vault, earning full control over the software and the people's access to the platform. I will not be surprised at all if some of this closed projects would appear included into closed software under new authors after a year.


Is this behavior new? It has been like that for as long as I can remember, certainly before Microsoft bought GitHub.


It is not. I also remember this behavior around forking private repos from before the acquisition. But then again, this doesn't lend itself to a conveniently pithy comment about Microsoft ruining everything.
