GitHub really needs something finer-grain then just pretending the repo never existed during these incidents. [1]

The bad package version has also just disappeared from crates.io [2] with no indication its been yanked. There's no security advisory there either [3] "No advisories found for this crate."

I feel crates.io was unprepared for a security incident like this since they're managing the response [4]
