open source hosting existed before GitHub and will continue to exist after it
Github clones are very very cheap to host, what makes the value of Github isn't its features but the fact that it's a central hub for developers
This will affect the entire AI world, if Microsoft loses, training on copyrighted materials will be illegal.
