I am extremely individualistic. Github is also an "individual" that has its own private rights.

The author of this library absolutely had the right to write code, change it, etc. He does not have the right to use Github as a delivery mechanism for malware.

Had github simply banned the person, and took down their code I might have even sided with your position

However that is not what github did.
