# We're using GitHub under protest
This project is currently hosted on GitHub. This is not ideal; GitHub is a
proprietary, trade-secret system that is not Free/Libre and Open Souce Software
(FLOSS). We are deeply concerned about using a proprietary system like GitHub
to develop our FLOSS project. We have an
[open issue](https://github.com/zeronet-conservancy/zeronet-conservancy/issues/89)
to track moving away from GitHub in the long term. We urge you to read about the
[Give up GitHub](https://GiveUpGitHub.org) campaign from
[the Software Freedom Conservancy](https://sfconservancy.org) to understand
some of the reasons why GitHub is not a good place to host FOSS projects.
If you are a contributor who personally has already quit using GitHub, feel
free to [check out from our mirror on notabug](https://notabug.org/caryoscelus/zeronet-conservancy)
and develop there or send git patches directly to project maintainer via
preffered [contact channel](https://caryoscelus.github.io/contacts/).
Any use of this project's code by GitHub Copilot, past or present, is done
without our permission. We do not consent to GitHub's use of this project's
code in Copilot.
