It is painful for me to hear how trade restrictions have hurt people. We have gone to great lengths to do no more than what is required by the law, but of course people are still affected. GitHub is subject to US trade law, just like any company that does business in the US.

Users with restricted private repos can also choose to make them public. Our understanding of the law does not give us the option to give anyone advance notice of restrictions.

We're not doing this because we want to; we're doing it because we have to. GitHub will continue to advocate vigorously with governments around the world for policies that protect software developers and the global open source community.

It's actually based on location history of the users (IP based), not their residency. If you wanted to restrict access based on residency, you could simply block the IPs. This is how it works with the other US based companies. I can name a long list of companies acting like this.

The problem with this approach is people would lose access to everything. The restriction is only for things that require payment (e.g. Private repos), everything else is unaffected.

I have a question. Why GitHub use https://airtable.com for the request form? Airtable is a US company. There's a possibility that Airtable block the access from restricted location by the same reason.

I've been restricted, but I will not fill that form even if it was a mistake. It's preposterous. I honestly will use my phone as a private git server from now on instead of answering so much question that is non of your business.

This is disgusting. The fact that people "have to fill out forms to be able to download their OWN code" shows how little respect you have for Iranian engineers.

with all respects, I believe that the ugliest part of your action is the form. According to what mindset you've found the idea of the selfie photo?! This ridiculous form is totally unbelievable for me by considering the phenomenon of the
