Like I said: if you can't revoke the thing you committed, you need to get in touch with Github and have them remove it. That's a thing they do.

Sure, but the whole point of the article is that people don't know their "private" forks aren't private. You can't get in touch with GitHub if you've never had any indication that anything's wrong.

The solution for that is better UX.
