If you ever find a 'CoinKiller organization' on Github, it's not from us. It's a random moron trying to be important. Don't interact with it.


Thank you.

Same reason why blargSNES included an URL since day one.

lolSNES didn't. Someone registered lolsnes.com and set up one of those fake emulator sites. It links to other sites to maximize Google ranking. It not only offers an old, outdated lolSNES version, but also has shady crap like "download a girlfriend" (I kid you not).

Later on, lolsnes.net was registered and all lolSNES builds had that URL in them, but those who landed on lolsnes.com without knowing would get the old builds and be stuck with that. Worse would be the lolsnes.com douchebag receiving bug reports and useful shit instead of me.

I don't think you can take down stuff unless you have some sort of license, to back it up, which sucks.

Well then, I'd suggest getting a Creative Commons 4.0 License for CoinKiller.

This is the organization on GitHub. There are no projects, and thus no code in the org, and it shows no public users in the org.

Thanks for the links, I actually couldn't find it when I searched "CoinKiller Foundation" on Google, hat just brought up the actual CoinKiller repository by Staplebutter.

Well anyway it's just a random user and they don't even claim the right over CoinKiller (they don't even have a repository for CoinKiller themself) so I wouldn't worry to much about them.
