#2If you're too cheap to host your own information repository, you have to play by the rules of the people who do. What you want to do is publish your work to censorship resistant Internet tools like Freenet, Tor, i2p or Gnutella.

#3The idea behind github is to encourage new ways of thinking and different approaches -- including ones that question conventional thought. Parodying the excesses of feminism via github helps to reveal to women and men alike just what precisely the gender divide is made up from. Leaving the github up serves the useful purpose of inviting and CHALLENGING women to increase their interactions with men working in IT and show that real women are unlike the exaggerated-caricatures that feminism (or at least 'extremist feminism') has caused them to become perceived.

I agree. But these cloud services are so new, that people are not aware of the risks they are taking. They don't realize the needs they actually have. Since the customers don't know their needs, neither do the service providers. But if you want to stay ahead of the curve, I think you should as a consumer, request reliable service providers, or self host. As a service provider you should provide reliable services. At least, that is where I think we are heading.

I don't need to be CHALLENGED to increase my interactions with men in IT. Because IT is filled with men, I interact with them constantly. Perhaps a useful github would instead attempt to CHALLENGE the men in IT to interact with real women, instead of building up imaginary caricatures and basing complex worldviews on this without validating it. Sounds kind of waterfall, really, to build up so much theory before ever trying a real interaction.

I'm used to anonymous discussion where my ideas are considered on its own without regard to the celebrity of my character. I felt the need to become egotistical and celebrity driven by registering a pseudonymous account to express the idea that a parody/satire of the feminist movement doesn't imply attacking women and their rights.

The C+= project wasn't designed to challenge interactions between men and women. The C+= project is satire about the ideas of the feminist movement. The C+= project makes up caricatures about the feminist movement.
