[資訊] RawGit將要關閉

RawGit has reached the end of its useful life
https://rawgit.com/

RawGit將要關閉。RawGit直到上個月流量已達176T(2018/10/15),且多數是用來傳佈惡意軟件,不是作者原本預期要用來改善人們生活的初衷,故現在決定不再提供創建服務。原本已創建的網址服務,將提供到2019年10月。

Last month alone RawGit served over 4.2 billion requests and consumed more than 176 terabytes of bandwidth. Those numbers are simply unfathomable to me. They're almost too huge to be real.

Unfortunately, RawGit has also become an attractive distribution mechanism for malware. RawGit was meant to improve people's lives, but jerks are increasingly using it to hurt people.

Since I have almost no time to devote to fighting malware and abuse on RawGit (and since it would be no fun even if I did have the time), I feel the responsible thing to do is to shut it down. I would rather kill RawGit than watch it be used to hurt people.


#RawGit, close, 關閉
