As someone who has been paying for GitHub's(and to a lesser extent Microsoft's) services for years, what is the best way to reach out and let Nat Friedman, GitHub and parent company Microsoft know that its customers are not on board with them profiting via ICE contracts?
It's pronounced Diane. I do data architecture, operations, and backend development. In my spare time I maintain Massive.js, a data mapper for Node.js and PostgreSQL.
They do not appear interested in hearing about it. Microsoft's been chasing government contracts for a while, militarizing HoloLens and just now winning JEDI. I moved my public GitHub projects to GitLab (which has been having its own ethics fiascos of late, if at least on a much smaller scale) early this year after it was clear they were ignoring the original let-GitHub-know-how-you-feel project and hoping it'd blow over.
