    Author of the post here. Github finally took the offending page down approximately 10 minutes after the post appeared on the front page of HN. Total coincidence. I'm sure!

    Moral of the story. If you want even the most basic level of support from Github, you need to get on the front page of HN first.

    And it seems they are able to do things very quickly, when they want to. Bastards.

      It might not be a willingness issue as much as a bandwidth issue.

        unwilling to provide proper support?

        Just seems like a silly rational response to the same problem.
