I’m not sure where they have their information from, I have 2 very unique, personal accounts on github and i’ve had zero issues.
first is my public “portfolio” page and occasional professional/corporate client connected account, it is very much an account that you would “know” my info, linkedin, keybase, etc identifiers. Then i have a personal one that I use to contribute more anonymously, which I use to further opensource projects that my clients wouldn’t want me contributing to due to conflict of interest. I’m not talking espionage levels, just modified supportive code that i have contributed to an enterprise that doesn’t support opensource initiatives (aka, they’d pay a fine if it ever came public).
They just replied with this link, which has it listed as the third bullet. I suspect they don't actually care enough to do anything, but I had no idea that it was in their ToS.
ha, good info. I wouldn’t meet that violation because my main public account is a pro account. But, you’re not alone in multiple accounts and I assume unless you’re violating other TOS, you’ll be fine.
Giving them money is likely the reason you still have your accounts.
