Collecting and publishing private information (such as address) without a consent is a crime in most EU countries. To extreme this could ban Github in most of Europe. It is also probably against Github license agreement.

It is not that simple. Women can vote in Iran and be elected, with 51% of population they even have voting majority. There are 6% women PMs, clerics have less seats. http://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-36182796

Perhaps, but it made sense with 16MB RAM and 486 CPU. Current implementation uses 31 multiplier which is useless over 1M entries. This problem is also in Arrays.hash*() and many other places.
