Banned by abuse detection
Support will not return repository contents, even to the verified owner.
One independent mirror for your repositories.
Keep history reachable when GitHub is not.
None of them require you to do anything wrong. All three end with the repositories still on GitHub and unreachable to you.
Support will not return repository contents, even to the verified owner.
No ID check, no override. Without a recovery method the account stays closed.
Rewritten branches vanish at once. Deleted repositories are purged after 90 days.
my github account just got shadow banned. if anyone can pull strings to get github to look at why it was shadow banned that would be nice.
My @github account was just suspended with no notice or reason — the same day I opened my first PRs. Appeal filed!
Whelp, I got banned on @github randomly with 0 warning after 15+ years. Not a repo taken down — my entire account. 100s of repos, deploys, and logins. Gone.
My GitHub account was banned without a clear reason. I requested a manual review 3 days ago, but still no response. Developers deserve transparency and a fair review.
Banned for a third time from Github. MindDragonLabs github has been banned for no reason — I have no idea why.
WTH, I'm just "removing" stuff from my repos and got banned again @github.
Finally received the highest honor as a security researcher: being banned by @github.
#github has still not restored my account even after a lengthy explanation of what I use it for. They claim it was banned for "suspicious activity" — it's been almost a week.
hey @github, my account got suspended without any warning. And I can't even log in to submit a support ticket for reinstatement.
Soooo this just happened… I guess GitHub couldn't handle all my PRs.
My @github account of 10+ years was banned last week — no warning, no reason. Can't appeal since I can't log in. If anyone at GitHub sees this, please help me get a manual review.
Our 10k+ star repo just got taken down for no reason. No email, no call, no warning. Crazy way to congratulate us for hitting 10k.
hello @github, why did my account get suspended??? A lot of very sensitive repos are on my account, and there is no way I can even log in to back them up.
The backup is a plain git repo anyone can check by hand.
Less than two coffees a month, and every repo you own stays backed up.
Every commit, every branch, every repo, backed up beyond GitHub, ready the day you need it.
