Re: [ESPResSo-devel] New GitHub Terms of Service

[Ulf Schiller]

First of all, apologies for the "tracking cancer". I find it equally 
annoying but it is unfortunately beyond my control.

Second, I have shared the link to create awareness of the potential 
issue and initiate a discussion.

Third, I think most subscribers of this list will appreciate 
substantiating evidence for the claims that the "article is completely 
exaggerated" and that this case "is completely unrealistic". It may be 
the case, I simply don't know. Unsubstantiated claims, however, are by a 
vast majority of the scientific community considered bad practice.

Thank you,
Ulf
