If github goes down more people will notice (just like when china tried to take down github). Do use github please.

This is nonsense. Tech related people generally notice these stuff anyway. I guess anyone using GitHub in Turkey already knows what is happening. Having it banned will not serve shit.

It will serve to get the people angry with their government, otherwise they'll think "not my problem".

Oh this is so precious. As if we had a shortage of stuff to get angry.

Angry enough? Really? What was the last action you took to ensure his sanction?

You're probably not past such a tipping point. Perhaps entangling "non-political" resources will up your ante.

"Tech related people generally notice these stuff anyway."

a) I doubt it and b) "notice" is insufficient.
