The Register:
“#Codeberg beset by #AI bots that now bypass Anubis tarpit”…
https://www.theregister.com/2025/08/15/codeberg_beset_by_ai_bots/
… has The Register's usual click-bait sensationalism title, but the article itself is excellent. I'm glad these attacks on @Codeberg are getting some press coverage. The Register asked me for comment; I include my quotes below, but definitely click-through the article — at least to thank The Register for covering this important issue that few would cover.

… I was quoted in The Register:
> “The problems w/ #GitHub have been growing for some time. We at #SFC have always been concerned about the issue of using proprietary software to write #FOSS. However, the integration w/ #Copilot so deeply into the platform, and #Microsoft's flagrant use of content hosted on GitHub to train their own LLMs makes a departure from GitHub urgent for all FOSS developers.”

I hope it inspires you to #GiveUpGitHub! https://giveupgithub.org

GitHub so-called “Octocat” logo/mascot in one tentacle holds 💰. Six other tentacles form a cage for the words “USER RIGHTS” — which are set in blue stone, but are crumbling under the force of the tentacles. The final tentacle reaches out with an open palm — presuambly to collect even more rights & money from its users.
