TIL why I can't access release files from open-source projects on GitHub anymore.

It seems that the IP for release-assets.githubusercontent.com got added to ipthreat.net list:

https://ipthreat.net/ip/185.199.111.133

Malware is actually being distributed via GitHub, but the majority of repos are probably safe and useful.

By adding the GitHub IPs, the IP threat list becomes unusable. By not-adding them becomes less useful. An interesting dilema.

I guess it's one more reason to migrate your open-source project off GitHub. On the other hand @Codeberg and similar alternatives should take notice and prepare in advance.
