Introducing the GitHub transparency center
Blog post from GitHub
GitHub, committed to providing a safe and inclusive platform for developers, has released its biannual transparency report detailing its approach to content moderation and user information disclosure. As the platform has grown to host over 100 million developers, GitHub has expanded and refined its reporting categories, aligning with the Santa Clara Principles and UN guidelines for transparency. The introduction of the GitHub transparency center marks a significant update, offering an interactive platform where users can explore and download detailed reporting data, enhancing accessibility for researchers, journalists, and developers. This new format aims to streamline the reporting process while maintaining GitHub's dedication to openness and accountability. GitHub also plans to continue using its blog and social media to update and share insights from its data, inviting feedback through its repository.
