Who cares if nobody can work, the important is that those illegal streams are blocked

It is block? I think it was my Internet issue. Fuck. I hate this type of bullshit. But I can download some file from raw url?

    The TorrentFreak article might have more information; I skimmed it. I don't live in India, so I don't know. Apparently, only the raw.githubusercontent.com domain was blocked, so Indian users should have still been able to access the main github.com domain. It's the direct link to the files that was apparently blocked. But cloning repositories probably wasn't affected?
