Not the first time they've taken down Github repos, some with a legal basis (partial problem text, though Fair Use might overrule that if the cases ever made it to court), others with no involvement at all (https://github.com/egfx/React-Leaderboard still hasn't been restored, for example)

Personally, I would not trust a company this unethical to certify anything. Their excuse seems to be "we're using an external service" but they chose that external service and are fully responsible for these takedowns in their name.
