Your Private GitHub Repos Aren't as Private as You Think

Why is no one talking about this?

This blog post caught my attention today, and I'm kind of surprised that no one's talking about it because this seems like a big deal. Anyone can access deleted and private repository data on GitHub. Specifically, you can access data from deleted forks, deleted repositories, and even private repositories on GitHub, and it's available forever. This is known by GitHub and intentionally designed that way. That's right, this is a feature, not a bug.
