GitHub prioritizes transparency and developer safety by publishing detailed transparency reports about content moderation and user information disclosure. From January to June 2021, they received 172 requests to disclose user information, mostly from law enforcement, and processed 980 valid DMCA takedown notices, emphasizing a commitment to minimize disruptions to software projects. GitHub aims to limit content removal to comply with legal requirements, using geoblocking rather than global takedowns and notifying users unless prohibited by law. They also provide avenues for users to appeal takedowns and account restrictions, with a focus on supporting freedom of expression and access to information. The company recognizes the importance of adhering to legal standards and international human rights laws, providing transparency through open-sourced policies and public repositories for takedown requests.
