+ Is this name familiar to you? Maybe you encountered | |
+ cirosantilli on a StackOverflow or remembered one of | |
+ the iconic provile picture he chose ? Did you | |
+ encountered the name on GitHub? If so you may have | |
+ immediately noticed how he weaponized this popular | |
+ code hosting platform into a freedom of speech silver | |
+ bullet against China's censorship. | |
+ | |
+ The entire user profile was turned into a long | |
+ document that can resist the most ferocious | |
+ censorship. A vast amount of images and keywords | |
+ censored by China is published straight on the front | |
+ page, making it outstanding to the curious visitor. | |
+ | |
+ Would china dare to try take down the biggest code | |
+ hosting platform, harming most of IT companies in the | |
+ world? And even if it tries, would it succeed? And so | |
+ without provoking too much tension with the U.S.? | |
+ | |
+ While China's government censorship of its own | |
+ violence is world famous, so is GitHub's DDoS | |
+ mitigation services (provided by a dedicated company, | |
+ not performed by GitHub itself), after undertaking 1.3 | |
+ Terabit per second during a famous DDoS attack. | |
+ | |
+ This Brazilian Italian turned Goliath against Goliath. | |
+ | |
+ Are you curious about its practical plan to take down | |
+ China's great firewall? Or maybe you are interested | |
+ in one of the many computer-related topics he teaches | |
+ on its website? | |
+ | |
+ This activist doubled as student and teacher might | |
+ catch you down the rabbit hole of both computer | |
+ science and fight for freedom. | |
