Bit confused. If I have code on GitHub with most restrictive licence possible (no commercial reuse, no derived works) then how did Githubs legal get comfortable with this approach? What am I missing ?
By using github you have acceded to their terms of use[1]:
> Short version: You own content you create, but you allow us certain rights to it, so that we can display and share the content you post. You still have control over your content, and responsibility for it, and the rights you grant us are limited to those we need to provide the service. We have the right to remove content or close Accounts if we need to.
But the repos are provided under licenced terms no which can vary depending on publishers choice? Put another way, is there a licence that would prohibit reuse in this manner ?
