I haven often asked my self if there was some sort of failsafe at GitHub where
  one can reactivate a delete repo by paying money.

  I suppose many people are starting to be fed up with all what's going on with
  big companies stealing our code to train their LLMs, or maybe it's something
  else... who knows. It's not like we have a single reason to be discontent with
  Github / Microsoft.
  
  Anyway... I started reviewing all my projects to ensure that I mirror all my
  critical dependencies so I don't suffer the same problem again.

      one of the reasons why i made my own git , and yes I have all private at the
  moment. I understand the benefits of github, and why people use it, but I love
  to have my data with me. And also I have trust issues with MS :-)

      I suppose they would have to change their terms and conditions, as the
  creator/owner of the IP has the moral & legal rights to stop distributing
  their own creation...
      
      I'm not sure people would be happy about this kind of change if it were to
  happen, I'm imagining there would be a PR scandal (pun intended).
