Many of my organizations were flagged on 2024-02-12 and hidden. Saga via a tweet thread at <https://twitter.com/dhimmel/status/1757034659895021838 https://twitter.com/dhimmel/status/1757034659895021838>.
Apparently the cause was that I interacted with code that GH detected as malicious. The weird thing was that GH left this supposedly malicious code as publicly visible in multiple personal repos while hiding my unrelated organizations. These organizations were home to highly used scholarly software, research projects, and datasets. I started getting emails from users like:
> I was looking at a manubot issue and found out that the repo vanished from the internet. What happened?
I got the situation resolved through my contact at GitHub, but still no response via the GH support ticket after 2 weeks. Seems like GitHub is shooting themselves in the foot. Strange.
